MohBad – Police question Primeboy over petition by late singer’s wife

The late singer’s friend has, however been released from the police custody.

The Lagos State Police Command has revealed that Ibrahim Owodunni, also knows as Primeboy, was re-arrested and interrogated at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, Yaba, due to a petition filed by Wunmi, wife of the late singer MohBad.

According to reports, Primeboy was arrested and detained on his scheduled Tuesday visits to the SCID, alongside his friend Ayobami Fisayo, aka Spending.

It was gathered that since their first arrest on the issue of MohBad’s death, Primeboy and Spending had been asked to visit the SCID every week since the commencement of the investigation into the circumstances leading to the death of MohBad.

During their visit of Tuesday, 12th of March, however, Primeboy was detained while Spending was released.

It has now been revealed by the state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, that Primeboy was questioned over alleged defamation of character and other allegations cited in Wunmi’s petition.

He said, “One of the conditions under which he (Primeboy) was granted bail during Mohbad’s case was that he would come to the state CID every Tuesday to sign just to keep an eye on him so that he wouldn’t run away. So, he came in today and he took longer than usual. This is because Mohbad’s wife wrote a petition against him in which defamation of character was part of it. He was questioned on the allegation.
Hundeyin also added that the detainee has since been asked to go after questioning.

“After the questioning, I was told that the DC asked him to go. So, the SCID confirmed to me that he had left the place about five minutes ago (6.12pm),” he added.
