In a surprising turn of events, the Bolt driver who was assaulted by House of Representatives member, Alex Ikwechegh, has issued an apology despite clear video evidence of the altercation.
The apology may be disappointing to well-known influencer Verydarkman, whose involvement in the incident played a role in ensuring that Ikwechegh actions were questioned.
While it’s not immediately clear why the driver chose to apologize, it’s possible that external pressure, including the legal implications and public backlash, led to a resolution aimed at calming the situation.
According to Topnaija, Ikwechegh had physically assaulted the driver over a dispute regarding a snail delivery, which was filmed and widely shared online, igniting a storm of criticism from the public.
The situation remains fluid, with calls for both justice and reconciliation.
However, Ikwechegh himself has already apologized to both the driver and the public for his actions, acknowledging the distress caused.
