Police asks Dbanj to report son's shock death

The police in Lagos on Monday said singer, Dapo ‘Dbanj’ Oyebanjo, would report the circumstances that led to his son’s death to the police when the mourning period is over.

The police also said that a delegation from the command, led by the Divisional Police Officer, Ikoyi Division, Mustapha N’Abba, were at the singer’s residence on a condolence visit but did not meet anyone at home.

This information was contained in a statement published on the official Instagram handle of the Lagos State Police Command on Monday.

The Police Public Relations Officer Lagos State Police Command, Chime Oti, signed the statement.

The statement read, “The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, CP Edgal Imohimi, on behalf of officers and men of Lagos State Police Command, wishes to commiserate with the family of Mr and Mrs Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo a.k.a D’BANJ @iambangalee on the death of their one-year-old son, Daniel(Jnr) Oyebanjo whose sad event took place yesterday 24/06/2018, at the Ikoyi-Lagos residence of the family.
