Dr. Fabian Ihekweme, a former Commissioner in Governor Hope Uzodimma’s administration, has filed a lawsuit against the Nigerian Police Force and the Imo State Commissioner of Police at the Federal High Court in Abuja, seeking N5 million in damages.

The suit, marked FHC/ABI/CS/1809/2024, alleges gross violations of Ihekweme’s fundamental human rights, citing unlawful arrest and detention by the police in Imo State.

Ihekweme is requesting a perpetual injunction to prevent the police from subjecting him to further arrest, detention, intimidation, threats, assault, or harassment based on unsubstantiated allegations. He argues that such actions violate his constitutionally guaranteed freedom of expression.

Additionally, he is seeking a court order for his immediate release or the granting of bail in accordance with the provisions of the law.
