New photos making the rounds on the internet have shown the moment Goodluck Jonathan's security aide lashed at a reporter.
This is the moment a media personnel is physically assaulted by a security operative attached to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan.
The man being pushed around is reportedly a Punch journalist, identified as Friday Olokor.
According to Olatunji Obasa, a photojournalist at the Punch, who shared the photos on Facebook, the incident occurred just after the chief Tony Anenih Thanksgiving service at Our Lady Catholic Church, Garki, Abuja.
Below is how he put the details:
He wrote: "Something still needs to be done to media humiliation and brutality in the cause of their duty.
"Security aides attached to the former President Goodluck Jonathan battered Punch reporter, Friday Olokor, after the chief Tony Anenih Thanksgiving service at Our Lady Catholic Church, Garki, Abuja."
