Three months after his wedding, Nigerian designer Uche Nnaji says he has been unlawfully detained by the Nigerian Police Force for allegedly threatening a man’s life.
The CEO of fashion brand OUCH! through a Blackberry broadcast message said he returned from Abuja (where he was over the weekend, honored by the President of Nigeria in Aso Rock) at about 1 PM on Monday, December 16, 2013 and made his way to the Special Investigation Bureau office in Ikeja only to be detained.
‘7 hours after I got to the police with my lawyers whom was waiting for me here and a surety, the police tactfully delayed their effort and said I have to be detained here till tomorrow as the OC in charge skilfully left the office at 5PM’, Nnaji wrote.
Nnaji says he’s being detained because a certain Mr Kelechi Mbagwu reported that he threatened his life. He described Mbagwu as a ‘money bag’ who the Nigerian Police ‘is playing to his tune’.
A call was placed to Mbagwu who neither responded nor replied our text messages as at the time of this report.
‘I could have kept mute and called all the people I know to call the IG or CP but I need the Nigerian youths to take this matter up’, Nnaji says.
