NPF Seek Court Order To Remand Seun Kuti In Custody

Police sources explained that the action became necessary in order not to violate the constitutional duration of detention of suspects.

Famous Nigerian singer, Seun Kuti, who is the son of music legend, late Fela Kuti, may remain in custody longer than expected.

This is because the Police, on Tuesday morning, sought a court order to remand him in custody, pending when investigation into the assault on a policeman is concluded.

Seun was taken to the Yaba Court 1, this (Tuesday) morning.

Police sources explained that the action became necessary in order not to violate the constitutional duration of detention of suspects.

Besides, Police sources attributed the delay to Seun’s refusal to write a statement on the matter when he was taken to the State Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Department, SCIID, yesterday morning.

A source said: “Immediately the incident happened, the Police officer reported the matter.

“There was also a video of him (Seun) slapping and pushing the policeman on the Third Mainland Bridge.

“However, that is not enough to conclude the investigation. There is a need for him to state his side, as part of the investigation.

“But he refused to write his statement yesterday (Monday) morning when told to do so.”

Naija police sef!

Seun is stupid we all have learnt from him that is enough now. I think the police are trying to cover the full story. It's sad that Yoruba people are watching as this man is being abused by the Nigerian police.
We kept quiet throughout Fela's time while he was telling us the truth. We are looking at his son being abuse as well.
If he was an Hausa man they won't allow you to threat him this way. Look at the man that killed Deborah walked free from the court for killing, while Seun's live is being pulled apart because of ordinary slap that police give 70% of the citizens every day.
