Ehiozuwa Agbonayinma, a member of the House of Representatives from Edo State, has accused his colleagues in the Peoples Democratic Party PDP of sending thugs to assault him.
Addressing newsmen in Abuja, Agbonayinma claimed that if not for Dino Melaye, the Senator representing Kogi west and another Senator who protected him, he would have been attacked inside the National Assembly Complex.
He was one of the few lawmakers in the All Progressives Congress APC, who came to the complex during the security siege that lasted for hours.
The national assembly belongs to all political parties and Nigerians why must PDP thugs blocked me from entering the complex?
The DSS also protected him from the rampaging thugs and the question is who brought them there if not the PDP.
Even when he finally entered the complex, PDP lawmakers told me he had no business being there and it was senators Matthew Uroghide and Dino Melaye who protected me,Agbonayinma explained.
The lawmaker called for a probe of the alleged assault, saying: “This can’t happen in the United States as such thugs will be prosecuted. I demand for their prosecution.
