Description

Lois Lorhivi, and her younger siblings, Joi and Jerry were harassed, beaten and brutalized by the security detail of the Nassarawa state Governor by allegedly obstructing the road. In what could be described as an executive show of shame and rascality, the Governor told Lorhivi that “You can take the case to wherever you wish or go to hell” when she demanded that the rights and that of relatives be respected.
