A former Senator representing Adamawa North Senatorial District, Ishaku Abbo is again involved in another controversy following the release of a viral video allegedly showing him in a wild s*x orgy with a married woman.
The video, which surfaced online last week, shows a light-skinned man engaging in s*xual intercourse with the woman identified as being married.
Many have tagged Senator Abbo as the man in the yet to be verified video.
This incident follows a previous controversy in 2019 when Senator Abbo was caught on camera assaulting a nursing mother in a s*x toy shop in Abuja.
The case drew widespread condemnation and led to legal proceedings against him, a development that drastically diminished his political career.
In response to the latest scandal, Senator Abbo held a press conference on Thursday, vehemently denying any involvement in the video.
According to Punch, he refuted the allegations, asserting that he was not the person in the video and labeled the incident as an attempt to tarnish his image.
He said, “How can you identify a person without seeing his face, his body, only parts of his legs and you said it is Senator Abbo.
“Blackmail cannot stop me from winning elections. A senator from one of the northern states was shown in a s*x video with his entire body, but he still won an election to the Senate, and his wife won an election to the House of Representatives. My people love me. No amount of blackmail can stop me.”
The controversial senator threatened to take legal court action against those he suspected were behind the circulation of the sex video and who are trying to malign and tarnish his name.
He stressed that he was not deterred by the s*x video, but warned that tarnishing his image would not help the political interest of those sponsoring the blackmail, insisting that his supporters would still vote for him because of his performance while in the Senate.
Meanwhile, the alleged lady partner who is said to be married has tendered a public apology for the viral video calling on friends and family to forgive her.
