A senator representing Ekiti south, Biodun Olujimi, was trailed with criticisms and mixed reactions on Monday after she allegedly asked her aide to assault a member of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN).
According to TheCable, the lawmaker was reportedly irked by the decision of the PASAN member to ride in an elevator with her.
It was gathered that the senator was on her way to the public hearing of the Senate committee on petroleum downstream, investigating the N5 trillion subsidy payment to the Nigerian National Petroleum Commission (NNPC).

Olujimi allegedly ordered her aide to slap the official. The National Assembly staff immediately told members of PASAN who were holding a congress on the second floor of the new wing of the senate.
This caused an outrage as his colleagues stormed out of the congress in a bid to attack the lawmaker, who was scuttled to safety by her security guards.
While speaking to a correspondent, a National Assembly staff in anger said; “From today, I will start entering lift with senators. No senator will ever push me out.”
It was learnt further that the parliamentary staff were holding the congress to embark on a strike.
Speaking with journalists after the incident, Olujimi vowed to take the matter up with the police.
