A Federal High Court in Abuja has Monday directed Senator Elisha Abbo PDP, Adamawa North who slapped a woman repeatedly at a sex toy shop on May 11, 2019 to pay the sum of fifty million naira (N50), to Osimibibra Warmate for assault.
The senate member was reported to have entered a sex toy shop around 6pm, with three young ladies to purchase adult toys.

While shopping for the toys, one of the three girls started throwing up. She vomited multiple times, the shop owner passed a comment that the woman should have vomited outside and not inside her shop.

Abbo, who was upset by the sudden illness of the girl accused the shop owner of poisoning the store’s air conditioner, but the shop owner’s difference of opinion was said to have angered Abbo, The senator was said to have called a policeman who he then ordered to arrest the shop owner.

The shop owner quickly called her father to inform him that Abbo had called police over the matter and that she was about to be taken away.

The shop owner’s friend who had been standing nearby tried to intervene by pleading with the second man to take things easy but was slapped repeatedly by the lawmaker.

The assault was reported on May 14 at the Maitama Area Command Headquarters on Nile Street, but the police told the victim to go look for Abbo’s telephone number or they would not be able to do anything about it.

He was later arraigned by the police before a magistrate court in Zuba, on a one-count charge for assaulting Warmate. Abdullahi Ilelah, the magistrate, upheld the no-case submission filed by the lawmaker and dismissed the case.

However, Warmate continued to file a fundamental rights suit marked CV/2393/19 before the FCT high court, which has now ruled in her favour.
