The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) has demanded the dismissal and prosecution of the police officer who assaulted and attempted to kill the 2023 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, while in detention.
Papers News reports that IPAC made this known in a petition to the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, signed by its national Chairman, Yusuf Dantalle, and titled ‘Petition Against Your Officers and Men for threat to life, and alleged assault of Mr. Omoyele Sowore.’
Recall that Sowore, a human rights activist, was arrested and detained after honouring an invitation at the headquarters of the Nigeria Police Force.
