In a shocking development within the Nigerian legal community, businesswoman Tracy Ohiri has released a viral video leveling serious allegations against human rights lawyer Marshall Abubakar.
Ohiri claims she was subjected to threats and deception to force her into offering a public apology to the current Minister of Works, David Umahi.
This controversy stems from a long-standing debt dispute, where Ohiri asserted that the Senator owed her for goods supplied more than ten years ago.
While the case originally gained massive support through an online movement led by activists and bloggers, the public was stunned by a sudden "closed-door" video of her apologizing.
Ohiri has now broken her silence, clarifying that she was pressured into filming the apology video under the false promise that her full payment would be settled before the footage went public.
Addressing the rumors of a settlement involving ₦100 million, she denied such claims and instead called for a formal NBA probe.
She specifically appealed to the Nigeria Bar Association leadership, under Afam Osigwe, to investigate the professional conduct of Abubakar.
As this developing story unfolds, many are questioning the ethics behind the "closed-door" negotiations and the treatment of the accused lawyer's client.
