The officers were stationed at his Allen Avenue home but were later asked to leave the area.
Recall that the Inspector General of Police, Baba Alkali, ordered for Seun’s arrest after a video of him assaulting a police officer surfaced online. The singer was seen pushing and also slapping a police officer on the Third mainland bridge. Seun shared a post on his IG page last night where he stated that the officer tried to kill him.
Meanwhile, the officer he assaulted has reported to the command headquarters and has given his statement of what transpired between him and the singer.
