Slapping Senator Abbo to celebrate Laycon with mega Lagos party

Nigerian Senator, Elisha Abbo has pledged to organise a mega concert for recent Big Brother Naija season 5 winner, Laycon.

A known fan of the singer, Senator Abbo who represents Adamawa North Senatorial District in the upper legislative chamber said he is ready to shut down Lagos; and is summoning Afropop star Naira Marley to headline this party.

“Congrats Laycon. All Marlians, come here! Gather here today. I cannot support Laycon and Laycon loses.

“I told you Laycon is coming home with the money. Laycon is home with the money. We are going to Lagos for a partyyyyyy!!!

“Naira Marley, come here! Party for Laycon!!," Abbo shared.

In 2019, Abbo who is Nigeria’s youngest senator, was caught on tape dishing out slaps on a hapless lady named Osimibibra Warmate in a sex toy shop in Nigeria’s capital city of Abuja, Pulse said.

The incident sparked widespread outrage on social media, with a teary-eyed Abbo apologising profusely afterward.

In July of 2020, a magistrate court dismissed the case against the 42-year-old lawmaker, ruling that the evidence and exhibits tendered to the court did not prove the criminal charges against him.

A Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court has however just ruled differently--ordering the senator to pay N50 million to Warmate as compensation for the assault.

A senate committee is also investigating the incident.

I'm posting this video to trigger y'all afresh.
