Nigerian Afrobeats singer and songwriter, Harrysong, has been detained in the custody of the Nigerian Police Force at the Airport Police Command in Lagos.

 

The Reggae and blues crooner was arrested after landing in Nigeria following a petition sent to the Inspector General of Police by music executive, Soso Soberekon.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed that the music star was in custody and writing a statement.

“He is currently in our custody and writing his statement,” the PPRO simply said.

The arrest of the singer comes a week after he stated in a podcast, Frankly Speaking, hosted by media personalities, Nedu, Husband Material, Toun, and Naomi, that Soberekon sent hired killers to him.

In a swift reaction, the music executive, Soberekon, slammed the singer with a lawsuit. In the notice posted on his Instagram page on Tuesday, Soberekon asked for a retraction of the statement, an apology and N500,000,000 for compensation.
