Ibekimi Oriamaja Reports

A woman assaulted Inspector Endurance Ogene, a female officer serving at the Enerhen Division in Delta State’s Uvwie Local Government Area.

Victor Dickson, a commercial tricycle operator, was also hurt by the woman.

According to Track News, the Policewoman was attempting to make peace by separating a fight between the troublesome woman and a commercial tricycle operator, Victor Dickson, when she was attacked and injured on her face.

The woman, who refused to give her name, denied assaulting the female police officer, claiming she took a tricycle from the main market to Enerhen junction and paid one hundred naira for her transportation.

She told our correspondent that the tricycle driver refused to give her exact change in exchange. This resulted in a heated argument between them until the policewoman intervened.

“I had never met the woman before,” she says. No way would I hurt her. “She, on the other hand, boasted that she was willing to go to any length, including court, with the policewoman.”

Victor Dickson, a commercial tricycle operator, told our correspondent that he transported the woman from the main market to Enerhen junction for 150 naira, which she agreed to pay.

Dickson stated that he was surprised when they arrived at Enerhen junction and she began arguing, injuring him in the process. He claimed the woman also injured the officer while attempting to make peace.
