Policemen on Monday visited the Ikoyi home of popular singer, D’banj, one day after his son, Daniel, reportedly drowned in a swimming pool.
The team from the Ikoyi Division of the Lagos State Police Command was led by CSP Mustapha N’Abba.
A statement signed by the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, Chike Oti, said the team was on a condolence visit.
Oti said there was nobody at D’banj’s home when the police visited and the musician is expected to formally report the circumstances that led to the death of his son after a mourning period.
Oti’s message reads: “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 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.
“The CP wants the family to know that at this period of their grief, the entire Command shares in their pain.
“Although a delegation from the Command, led by the Divisional Police Officer, Ikoyi Division, CSP Mustapha N’Abba, who were at the Ikoyi home of the Oyebanjos on a condolence visit did not meet anyone at home, it is expected that when the mourning period is over, the family will formally report the circumstances that led to the unfortunate death of little Daniel to the police. May his soul rest in peace. Amen.”
