The Lagos State Police Command has arrested popular Nigerian singer, Adekunle Temitope, better known as Small Doctor, with three others for alleged unlawful possession of a firearm.
According to the State Police boss, CP Edgal Imohimi, the suspects were arrested after they had threatened to shoot traffic policemen.
Small Doctor was arrested on allegations that he threatened a Police officer who was on traffic duty along Oshodi, Lagos.
Imohimi added that he was disappointed with the musician’s conduct, knowing he had a case with the SCIID, Panti for shooting at his show in Agege, where he allegedly injured four persons.
His words: “You would have thought the incident would wisen him up but surprisingly today, I got a situation report that from traffic monitors at Oshodi expressway alleging that four unknown gunmen in green unregistered SUV.”The CP further urged celebrities to stop involving themselves in issues of gangsterism and conflicts that do not portray them well.
“He brought out a weapon and threatened to fire the policemen. Fortunately, the DPO and other policemen at Shogunle intercepted the suspects and arrested them.”
“When they were brought here it was discovered that one of them was the same Adekunle Temitope aka Small Doctor with three others and they were arrested with a functional rifle, a cartridge and some personal items.”
“I am concerned as one will expect that a popular musician like him would be a role model but his character of gangsterism is nothing to emulate.”
