Senator Elisha Ishaku Abbo, who represented Adamawa North in the Senate between 2019 and 2023 and was recently accused of a sexual offense, has given the accuser three days to retract the accusation and apologize to him.
A video had surfaced earlier this month showing a woman in a romp with a man whose face was hidden, after which the woman, Wange Minso, alleged that the hidden face was that of Abbo.
In a cease and desist letter addressed to the woman and routed through his counsel, M.J. Numa & Partners LLP, Abbo is demanding the “accuser to retract her allegations on national television and in the national dailies that initially published the claims.”
The firm asks the accuser to act accordingly, or it would initiate legal proceedings to demand damages in favour of Abbo.
The ultimatum, issued on September 12, 2024, and sighted by DAILY POST Wednesday morning, is the latest development in the controversy surrounding Abbo.
While the woman in the video said the video was released by Abbo because he got angry with her over something she did, Abbo alleged that the woman fingered him as the hidden face in the video because his political opponents were using her against him.
Abbo’s counsel, M.J. Numa & Partners LLP, which describes the allegations against Abbo as “false, malicious, and defamatory,” and causing “irreparable damage” to the senator’s reputation, said Abbo is considering legal action because he cannot fail to act while his reputation is being tarnished.
