The Nigeria Police Force has revealed that the agency will interrogate Damini Ogulu, also known as Burna Boy over the shooting of two fun-seekers by his police escorts in a club in Lagos.
Celebritywatch Magazine had earlier reported that five policemen attached to Burna Boy had been detained by the Lagos police command for the attempted murder of the persons identified as Irebami Lawrence and Tolu.
Burna Boy was said to have been laughing while the incident occurred and immediately left for Spain shortly after.
Earlier on Sunday, Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said that the Inspector General of Police, IGP Usman Baba, was alarmed by the despicable action of the personnel and had directed Lagos Police Commissioner to investigate the matter and forward the report for immediate action.
But later on Sunday while responding to a statement by one Adeshina on Twitter, saying “This has nothing to do with burna boy. The duty of police guard to burna boy is to protect his life so sir forget what some burna haters said about him. Pls carry out your investigation due diligent sir. God bless Nigeria police force,” Adejobi said the police would have to interrogate the singer to carry out a thorough investigation.
Adejobi tweeted, “Exactly what we will do. But there is no how the police want to have detailed investigation without interrogating Burna Boy. No way. So the level of involvement of everyone in the incident will determine his punishment or otherwise. We should not pre-empt what the report will reveal.”
The shooting incident reportedly occurred at Club Cubana on Victoria Island, Lagos, on Wednesday.
