A Delta State High Court in Warri has fined ex-Minister of State for Education, Kenneth Gbagi for staff abuse.
Gbagi, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) 2023 governorship candidate in Delta State, was accused of ordering four staff to be unclothed and photographed over a theft case at his Signatious Hotel in Effurun.
On September 30, 2020, Gbagi filed an application before Justice Taiwo Taiwo, seeking an order to restrain the police and others from arresting him. But in February 2021, the police prayed the Federal High Court, Abuja, to allow the security agency to investigate him
