The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana, has faulted Edward Ijah, the sidekick of popular musician, Davido, for handcuffing and parading the two women who accused Davido of impregnating one of them.

Davido’s hype man, known as Special Spesh, had posted a video on Instagram showing the two women, Helen and Susan, handcuffed and sitting on a chair in a living room.

Spesh could be heard telling one of the ladies to lift up her head or get a slap in the face.


He subsequently told them they were in trouble for “deformation (sic) of character.”

Davido also posted a smiley in the comment section, laughing over the treatment meted out to the women.

Speaking with The PUNCH on Tuesday, however, the police spokesman said it was wrong of Davido and his team to take the law into their own hands.

Elkana said a citizen has the right to arrest another person and hand over to the police immediately.

He said no citizen had the right to parade another citizen.

Elkana noted that a popular rich man, Onye Eze, was arrested earlier in the year for arresting a popular blogger, Blessing Okoro, who had taken photos of his house, claiming ownership of the property.

The police spokesman said, “Even if someone defamed your character, you are to hand over the person to the police immediately but to parade them is wrong. The person being paraded has the right to sue. Private citizens have no right to parade another person.


“Not all policemen even have the power to parade suspects.

“You cannot be a judge in your own case. If he feels aggrieved, he should lodge a complaint and not go to effect an arrest. He cannot conclude the guilt of another person. There must be an investigation and only a court can pronounce them guilty.”

The two women had last week accused Davido of being responsible for impregnating one of them and the report went viral on social media.

Davido subsequently offered N1m to anyone who could fish out the girls.

They were subsequently arrested on Tuesday and paraded by the musician’s sidekick.

I think it means that the brain has low cells count.

So the self esteem of the few cells available is low and doesnt meet the minimum standard for an intelligent being.

What davido did was never right, that is taking laws into your hands... An extrajudicial act!!!. What the girls did was totally wrong and should handled by the appropriate hands not some random folks who even threatened her with a slap

If Nigeria were to be a sane country, davido would have also been arrested alongside with the girls.

I wish the girls could sue him for damages

webshopNG:

They should be paying for damages if this is really a revenge against slander and defamation of character.

TissuePaper:
what a stupid comment

Thegoodone13:
Davido has right to arrest them and handover to police but to handcuff them and parade them is totally wrong. Those girls can sue him now

coolfredo:
if de girl sue davido for damages n davido sue davido for damages too

bus1:
The two girls made a false accusation against Davido.
Now Davido and his henchmen kidnap the girls, handcuff them, threaten them, detain them against their wills and film and broadcast it online.

In a sane society, the question will be who has committed the bigger crime ?

But because the Nigerian society is populated by mediocres who in turn celebrate other mediocres, nothing will happen here.

nabegibeg:


It is only law enforcement agencies that can arrest, when did davido become law enforcement agent

NoRetreat:
a private citizen has right of arrest but he/she must promptly handover the arrested person to the police/ Law Enforcement Agency. The offence of Davido and his hype man are; Conspiracy and Deprivation of Liberty. The girls on the other hand can be sued for defamation of Character which is a civil wrong and not a criminal offence. Therefore, no need of arrest and parade , the girls can write a petition through their lawyer to the Police.
