Nigerian dancehall star, Damini Ogulu popularly
known as ‘Burna Boy’ on Friday submitted himself to
the Lagos State Police Command to state his side of
the story over allegations of his involvement in a
robbery attack on a fellow artiste, Mr. 2kay.
He was subsequently arrested, interrogated and
detained and is expected to be charged to court on
Monday alongside four of members of the gang
earlier arrested.
Commissioner of Police, Mr. Imohimi Edgal, after the
interrogation, said the State Police Command has
zero tolerance for all forms of crime and would not
hesitate to prosecute anyone found culpable in any
criminal offence perpetrated in the State.
“There would be no sacred cows. This Command is
poised to ensure that every resident can feel safe
wherever they are and carry out their businesses
without fear or favour. Anyone therefore found to be
involved in this case would be made to face the law
to clear his or her name or face prosecution ,”
Imohimi said.
The pop musician, who was declared wanted by the
Lagos Police Command in connection with the
robbery attack on another popular musician, Mr.
2kay at Eko Hotel and Suites early last month,
reported to the Command headquarters in Ikeja at
about 5pm.
It was also learnt that Tunmise Omotore, gang leader
of the suspected robbers, had confessed on how they
disguised as room service to rob Mr. 2kay at Eko
Hotel and Suites on the instruction of Burba Boy’s road manager Joel Kantiock.
