Davido lied, He knows about Tagbo’s Death – Lagos State Commissioner of Police,
Davido
Lagos State Commissioner of
Police, Edgar Imohimi said that Nigerian music star, David Adeleke, aka Davido
knew about the death of his friend, Umueke Tagbo.
Imohimi told journalists that
Davido lied to the police that he did not know how Tagbio was taken to the
Lagos General Hospital’s premises and died.
The Police Commissioner stated
that Close Circuit Television (CCTV) footages from the hospital showed that
Tagbo was brought in dead by Davido’s escort driver, Tunde Usutu and two of his
friends, Agbeje Olaoye and Idris Busari, adding that his men abandoned the
deceased inside his ash Toyota Camry LSD378EL on Davido’s directives.
He explained that on October 3,
at about 9:20am, the Chief Security Officer (CSO) of General Hospital Lagos,
Oparanti Moshood alerted the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) Lion Building that
an unidentified male was brought in dead (BID) in an Ash Toyota Camry Saloon
car marked LSD378EL by two unidentified males.
According to him, the
international passport found in the deceased’s car, the DPO gave his identity
as Umueke Tagbo.
Afterwards, one Caroline
Danjuma, an actress published that her boyfriend died in the company of Davido
and friends.
“I called for a
pre-investigation meeting in my conference room. In attendance were all parties
including family, friends of the deceased; those of Davido; Caroline Danjuma;
the DPO and investigating officers. The meeting confirmed that the deceased
Tagbo Umueke on that day met and had drinks with friends at Shisha Bar amongst
whom was Davido.
“The bar tender confirmed the
deceased had as much as 40 tons of Tequila and exhibited signs of drunkenness.
The CCTV footage also confirmed this. Davido had told the police he had left
Shisha Bar for DNA Night Club in Victoria Island without the deceased and was
only informed by mutual friends of his death while he was at DNA.
“However, investigation revealed
that Davido’s white Toyota Hilux escort driver, Tunde Usutu, accompanied by one
Agbeje Olaoye and one Idris Busari, both Davido’s friends, took the deceased to
the General Hospital, Lagos and abandoned him in his vehicle on the instruction
of Davido.
“ The CCTV footage at the
hospital picked the escort vehicle and the entire activity. The vehicle was
recovered from Davido’s residence at 7, Awoshika Street, Lekki Phase 1. This
completely debunks Davido’s claim that he did not know how the deceased got to
the General Hospital. The interim autopsy report stated that the victim died of
Asphyxia.
“A case of sudden and unnatural
death (SUD) was reported on October 7, at about 8pm by the CSO Banana Island,
Ikoyi, to the DPO Ikoyi that two persons namely, Olugbemi Abiodun and Chime
Amechina of Flat Bill, Ocean Parade, were found dead inside one white BMW
Saloon car marked KJA631AY, at underground garage in the estate.
“Police operatives raced to the scene where
the bodies of the victims were taken to LASUTH, Ikeja for joint medical
examination to determine cause of death. Victims were found motionless and were
confirmed dead by a medical doctor. Further search into the vehicle revealed
that wrapped substances suspected to be weeds were recovered and might have
been used by the victims,” he explained.
According to the Police Boss,
liquid substances were found on their mouths and nostrils, adding
that from investigation by
policemen, there were no marks on their bodies.
According to him, the
pathologist said there was need to carry out further investigation before
concluding on the actual cause of the death.
He said the police still await
the autopsy result.
