Recall that the multiple award-winning music superstar, Burna Boy alongside his dad were said to have been arrested after the neighbours in the estate complained of their incessant noise.
However, on Sunday, May 24, Nigerians woke up to blog posts, and social media conversations alleging that the video of their arrest was false.
According to a report by Nigerian Entertainment Today, the Lagos Police said that they do not have the Grammy-nominated artiste in their custody.

Lagos State Police PRO, DSP Bala Elkana, debunked the viral news and clearly stated that Burna Boy was not arrested yesterday, Sunday, May 24, as the reports online claims.
He said, “They just recycled an old story. There was something that happened a very long time ago and it was resolved then. It’s not a recent event… But we don’t have him in our custody. He wasn’t arrested yesterday, we don’t even have complaints against him from yesterday.”
He added, “We don’t have such a case as reported online now. The reports online claim that he was arrested yesterday by our men but it’s not true. We don’t have such reports. That is my confirmation.”
There’s been no word from Burna Boy or his team regarding the news.
