The Afrobeat musician has finally been released on bail after spending over a week in police custody.
Ace Afrobeat musician Seun Kuti has been released from police custody after he was arrested for assaulting a police officer.
The Grammy-nominated singer became a nationwide topic after he was seen on video assaulting a police officer on the third mainland bridge in Lagos. Following the shocking incident, the Nigerian police force proceeded to arrest Seun Kuti in the early hours of today, Monday, May 15, 2023.
Seun was charged with assault on a police officer, an offense contrary to Section 356 of the Criminal Code Act, and although the singer was granted bail on May 16, 2023, after Magistrate Adeola Olatunbosun ordered police to complete their investigation within 48 hours, he wasn’t released until today, May 23, 2023.
According to Punch a Sabo-Yaba Chief Magistrates’ Court in Lagos State, last week Thursday granted an application by the police for an extension of remand of Seun Kuti until Tuesday (today), to enable the police to conclude its investigation, and for the advice of the Lagos State Directorate of Public Prosecution.
The singer has now been released on bail to reunite with his family.
