According to him, Enobong Phillip Eyoren is an Assistant Superindent in the NCS and that he did not offend him to warrant the threat to finish him.
“Enobong Philip Eyoren: the NCS officer who tortured me and his threat to “finish me”, he said.

The lawyer had objected to the presence of two armed police officers in the courtroom, a development that infuriated the judge, who threw caution to the wind send Inibehe to prison.
