..Surrenders to police

…Says Mohbad’s wife tried to frame him

By Sodiq Adelakun

Owodunni Ibrahim, also known as Primeboy, has refuted the claims made by the police regarding his invitation for questioning in relation to the death of singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

However, the Lagos State Police Command has confirmed that Primeboy has indeed been taken into custody. In a recent development, Primeboy has disputed the police’s statement, asserting that he was not invited for questioning.

He denied any involvement in the untimely demise of Mohbad. The police, on the other hand, maintain that Primeboy is a person of interest in the ongoing investigation.

The Lagos State Police Command, responsible for handling the case, has clarified that Primeboy is currently in their custody.

The authorities are determined to conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death.

The details surrounding Mohbad’s demise remain unclear, and the police are working diligently to uncover the truth.

As the investigation progresses, further updates are expected to shed light on the situation and provide clarity on Primeboy’s involvement, if any, in this tragic incident.

His arrest came less than 24 hours after he was declared wanted and a N1 million bounty put on his head.

However, before turning himself in, Primeboy made several revelations in an interview, including claims that Mohbad’s wife is trying to frame him.

When asked about snubbing police invitation, he replied: “That’s a big lie, there is no way I will receive a message from the police and I will refuse them.

“Before being declared wanted I wanted to turn myself in – I mean to explain myself at the station because they started accusing me wrongly. People that I called said I should chill, I shouldn’t go anywhere, and should wait for them to invite me.

“So I kept waiting and suddenly I found myself wanted online yesterday. People started calling me that N1 million for anyone who finds me and I was shocked and surprised. I called my lawyer and family and they said I should calm down and that nothing would happen, so far I know nothing about it.”

Primeboy also insisted he was not with Mohbad the day he died.

“I wasn’t with him when he died, because we departed after his show on Sunday.

“He chased me out of the car that day because he and his wife were having a hidden conversation, it was his family affair.

“I want justice for Mohbad and I want his wife to stop framing me online, that’s wrong.”
