It was earlier reported that the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, ordered the Lagos state Commissioner of Police, CSP Abiodun Alabi, to carry out an urgent and thorough investigation into the alleged shooting incident involving the police personnel attached to the Nigerian singer, Burna Boy.
The singer is alleged to have made passes at a woman who was with her husband at Club Cubana on Victoria Island on Wednesday, June 8.
It’s said that when the husband got angry at Burna Boy for making passes at his wife, tempers flared and one of his escorts, Inspector Ibrahim, fired his service pistol.
Punch reports that in the process, 27-year-old Lawrence was shot in the thigh while his friend, Tolu, was hit in the head by a bullet.
“Aware of what he had done, Burna Boy took the next flight out without even informing the policemen. He only made a video call to them to inform them that he had traveled to Spain. All his police escorts have been arrested and are currently at the Command headquarters,” said a top source at the office of the Lagos State Commissioner of Police.
Well, the singer, who had since kept mum on the reports, took to his Twitter handle on Wednesday afternoon to break his silence.
“Nigerian Social media can say BURNA BOY started Boko haram, e no go shock me.” He tweeted.
