Following the report published by Vanguard as regards Comedian Seyi Law dolling out heavy slaps to an Eko hotel and suites guard identified as Peter Ethan, the comedian has come forward to explain his side of the story.

Seyi Law, speaking with NAIJ admitted to slapping the security guard. He however stated that the slaps were dished out because the security officer was rude to him.

Seyi Law said: “After Kiss Daniels show, I was on my way home but there was traffic because so many people were trying to drive out of Eko Hotel.”

He continued: “After hailing me as usual, one of the security guards (Peter Ethan) walked up to me and told me to take another route in order to ease traffic and I obeyed. When I got to the other gate, another security officer told me to go back to where I was coming from and I did not complain.

“On getting back to the gate I was coming back from, Peter walked up to me to go through the other gate again and I told him I was directed back here. To my surprise the security officer told me how many people have turned back from where I was coming from and said ‘Oga abeg dey go’ and turned his face.

“I got angry and when I tried coming out of my car to explain to the other security passing cars behind me, the security man used the door of my car to hit me which got me angrier and I got down again and slapped him.”

Seyi law however noted that “On seeing this security I was going to meet came to me and I explained what happened. Then I got into my car and drive out of the Hotel.”

Revealing that he was later contacted by the management of the Eko Hotel and suites where the incident occurred, Seyi Law said: “the next day, I got a call from Eko Hotel and Suites asking me about what transpired between myself and one of their security officers and when I told them my own side of the story, they have not gotten back to me.

“If I was wrong I think they would have called me back ever since.” he added.
