BNXN Pleads for Mercy Over Deleted Tweets

Share

Nigerian fast-rising music star, Daniel Benson, known by his stage name Bnxn, formerly known as Buju, has pleaded with the Police over his deleted tweet.

A video of the 25-year-old in an altercation with the Police went viral on Wednesday after his car was stopped.

The Afro-fusion singer took to his Twitter page and wrote, “Spat in a Police officer’s face, and it felt so good”.

The Lagos state police public relations officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, took to his Twitter page to update the resolution between the two parties.

The Police SP revealed that the Police involved were from the Area F Ikeja Division, alongside BNXN, and have all been invited to the Police headquarters.

However, BNXN said he was indisposed and requested more time while being apologetic for his deleted tweets.

SP Hundeyin tweeted“All the police officers involved in this case, serving at Area F Ikeja, were identified and invited to the headquarters for 1100hrs today. 

“@BNXN was equally requested to report at the headquarters same time, to which he promptly agreed. However, at about 1230hrs today, @BNXN called to explain that he was indisposed and requested more time. 

“Furthermore, he was apologetic and regretted the wrong signal his deleted tweet sent to his teeming followers and people in general. He, therefore, pleaded to correct the ‘misconception’ and firmly take a stand against the assault on police officers.”
