The State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Hakeem Odumosu, speaking on the arrest, stated that after the Salawa Queen made the issue of the blackmail public in April 2020, he directed the Commander, Rapid Response Squad, DCP Olatunji Disu to fish out the suspect.
He said after a preliminary investigations, the Decoy Team narrowed down on the suspect a few days later but could not effect the arrest immediately due to COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdown directive by the Federal Government.
“The suspect has confessed to the Police that he is behind the attempt to blackmail the Musician with some of her nude pictures found on a sim card in exchange for money and that he was alone in the dubious scheme”, Odumosu said.
He added that the suspect is a 2017/2018 Electrical Engineering student of Yabatech, who discovered the nude pictures in a memory card picked up on the ground at Yabatech in November 2019, adding that after downloading the nude photographs of Salawa Abeni to his phone, he contacted her through the mobile number on her Instagram page to ask for money.
On his part, the RRS Commander, DCP Olatunji Disu, promised that no individual would be allowed to commit a crime in Lagos from any State or escape to other States in Nigeria to evade arrest.
He advised guardians and parents to monitor their wards, saying that the internet is a fertile ground for opportunities but the State Command would not allow criminals to use it as an avenue to exploit law-abiding Lagos residents.
