Tagbo’s Death: Police Commissioner Explains why Davido is Being Investigated

 As investigations to ascertain the cause of the death of Davido’s friend and actress, Caroline Danjuma’s lover Tagbo Umuike continues, the Lagos State police commissioner gives reasons why Davido is under investigation

The Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Imohimi Edgal in an interview on Channel TV’s Breakfast Show, Sunrise Daily, said that the singer is being investigated because his actions are suspicious.

“I asked Davido that, ‘When you left that bar, did you have anything again to do with the deceased?’ What he said was that he was only informed by mutual friends in some other bar that the deceased had died and I took his word for it.

I called for further investigations, pulled the CCTV cameras from the General Hospital, only to discover that it was Davido’s escort Hilux van, his driver, his friends that brought Tagbo Umeike (the deceased) dead and dumped in the hospital then fled the scene.

That raises curiosity and of course that’s what we are investigating, and that was why I ordered that the matter be moved to outstate CID at Yaba for proper investigation and of course, we will duplicate the case file and forward to DPP, Ministry of Justice for legal advise.

When Actress Caroline Danjuma came up on Instagram that Tagbo Umeike was in the company of the Pop-star, Davido and friends when he died and she suspects foul play.

I was forced to call all parties involved to my conference room as a kind of pre-investigation fact-finding and Davido was there with his family and friends, the victim’s family and friends plus Caroline Danjuma.

I asked questions. I remember even telling Caroline Danjuma that ‘Look you don’t go on your Instagram page without verifying facts because a person’s reputation is concerned.

It is an open sincere process here. We are not speculating, we are basing our reports on facts.” he said.
