THE MAN WITH THE MACE, CHIDI LLOYD, CHARGED WITH ATTEMPTED MURDER

Majority Leader of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd (third left) being led to the court in Port Harcourt...on Wednesday. 

Chidi Llyod is the Majority Leader of the Rivers State House of Assembly, and he is the man who was hitting his fellow lawmaker, Mr. Michael Chinda, with a mace in the video of the River's State assembly fracas that went viral. After eight days in police custody, Mr. Chidi Lloyd, on Wednesday, has been arraigned on six counts of attempted murder, conspiracy, assault and malicious damage. The lawmaker limped as he entered the court premises, supported by two unidentified persons. I hope justice prevails so thugs called politicians like him, will refrain from turning the House of Assembly into a wrestling ring.
