Governor of Delta state, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa has ordered the sack of one of his security aides, Mr Friday Eluro, who was caught on video assaulting a woman.
Speaking through his media assistant on Friday, February 8, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, the governor condemned the unwarranted assault on the woman especially from an appointee of government, who he said ought to ensure that the rule of law is observed in all situations.
“Governor Okowa having watched the video of the assault on a certain woman has directed that the appointment of Mr Friday Eluro as security aide be terminated forthwith to serve as deterrent to others.
“In the last three and half years, our administration have worked so hard to entrench the enduring peace in our state and we will not sit back and fold our hands to watch appointees of government or any other”.
Beyond sacking of the aide, the governor also ordered full investigation into the matter with the intention of serving the justice.
