The Forum of South-East Academic Doctors (FOSAD) unequivocally condemns the reported assault and brutalization of an e-hailing taxi driver by Alex Mascot Ikwuechegh, a member of House of Representatives (Aba North Constituency), at his residence in Abuja.

This unwarranted display of aggression towards a law-abiding citizen, who was simply carrying out his duties in a viral video, is deeply concerning and unacceptable.

  4. We’re now friends – House of Reps member, Alex Ikwechegh claims friendship with bolt driver he assaulted

As representatives of academia and advocates for a society grounded in the principles of justice, human dignity, and respect, we find this act reprehensible and unbecoming of a public servant.

The Forum stands firmly against any form of abuse or intimidation by those in positions of authority against Nigerian citizens. E-hailing drivers are hardworking members of our community, contributing to the economy and providing essential services to millions across the nation.

The brutalization of one of their own reflects a disregard for the dignity and rights of the common Nigerian worker, as well as an abuse of the power entrusted to public officials.

We therefore demand the following:

1. A Public Apology: Mr Alex Mascot Ikwuechegh must issue a public apology to the assaulted driver and the Nigerian public within the next seven days. This apology should acknowledge the harm caused, show accountability, and reaffirm a commitment to upholding the dignity of all Nigerians.

2. An Independent Investigation: We call on relevant authorities to launch a thorough investigation into this incident, ensuring that justice is served, and that such incidents do not reoccur.

3. Respect for Workers’ Rights: We urge all public servants and officials to treat citizens with respect and to remember that their positions are meant to serve, not subjugate or intimidate.

The Forum of South-East Academic Doctors will continue to monitor this issue closely and stands ready to support any actions necessary to protect the rights of Nigerians against abuse by those in authority. We remain committed to advocating for justice, fairness, and the humane treatment of all citizens.

E-Signed:

Dr Stephen Nwala

President, Forum of South-East Academic Doctors (FOSAD)

Dr Uzor Ngoladi 

Secretary General, Forum of South-East Academic Doctors (FOSAD)
