The reason cited was his mode of transportation: a tricycle often referred to as “Keke.”

Abuchi’s Reaction Captured Online

A trending video on the internet showcased Abuchi’s vocal displeasure over the decision to block his entry to the Assembly complex.

He loudly emphasized that he hadn’t been given a car yet.

Concurrently, a few women in the video commented that senators would be receiving cars soon, but tricycles were not permitted within the premises.
