Police Defend Drambi Vandi Who Killed Pregnant Lawyer, Call Him ‘Nice Man’

The police have defended Drambi Vandi, a cop under investigation for killing a pregnant Lagos lawyer, Bolanle Raheem. The Nigerian police claimed Mr Vandi might have acted under a spell.

Police spokesman Olumuyiwa Adejobi, speaking on Splash FM Radio in Abeokuta, the Ogun state capital, in a recent interview, described Mr Vandi as a “very nice man” and likely a victim of diabolical manipulation.

“I’m sure many elders will know what they called efun, edi, aransi, asasi, ebilu… Whatever that happens in the physical realm is controlled in the spiritual realm. That’s the spiritual aspect of it,” said the police in defence of the cop.

Mr Adejobi added, “The man was never a drunk. In fact, I was told he is a very nice man. I know him… The guy has been a very good man. Forget the story that he was this or that while in Niger. He was never in Niger state command.”

“He is a very nice man. I think he is from Plateau state…”, Mr ‘Adejobi said.

Mr Vandi was arrested for shooting and killing Ms Raheem on Christmas Day.

He was arraigned before the Chief Magistrate Court, Yaba, on one count of murder and remanded at the Ikoyi Prisons pending legal advice from the director of public prosecution (DPP).

Burna Boy Apologises To Fans For Late Performance

Grammy Award winner, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has apologised to his fans for arriving late for his Lagos concert.

Recall that the singer laid curses on his haters after he came in late during his concert themed, ‘Love Damini Concert’ while noting how he still performed in the country despite the several rumours against him.

However, fans have taken to social media to vent their anger about his lateness to the event.

Reacting to the outburst, Burna Boy took to his Instagram handle on Monday to apologize to his fans while blaming the organisers for the reason behind his late performance at the event.

He said, “Lagos, I love you but I can’t do this again. The organisational structure and infrastructure are not there for the complexities of my audio and production needs.

“Let’s be clear. I wasn’t late, my band wasn’t late. We pride ourselves on being highly professional, especially with our stagecraft. There were three options available to me; wait for the audio to be fixed and delay the show, come out at 11 pm as planned with no sound or call a breach of contract and pull the plug.

Going forward, Burna Boy said he is working with some investors and stakeholders who are forestalling future occurrences because he wants to continue to give his fans top-notch performances.

“I know I can’t go all over the world and neglect my own people so I’m taking matters into my own hands! I’m gathering the troops to work on building world-class infrastructure in the Nigerian entertainment business.”
