Singer Timaya has been arrested following a hit-and-run accusation by a lady identified as Omowunmi Lawal.
A video that circulated on the internet on Thursday, March 3, showed the singer being carted away by men in police uniform.
In another video, the singer was explaining to the policemen while making gestures to the car parked outside the building.
One of the men could be heard saying, “He will zoom off oo!”
This happened a day after the lady accused the music star of hitting her sister at the Ikate area of Lagos on Wednesday.
Omowunmi had alleged that the 41-year-old hit her sister’s car and when he was confronted, he also hit her (the sister).
She wrote on her Instagram page @homotowunmii, “These celebrities and how they behave. Timaya nearly killed my sister this morning. He hit her with his car and run at Ikate few hours ago.
“He hit my sister’s car and she came down to ask him to look at what he did. This heartless human was asking for number and she told him he would block her. Instead of @timayatimaya to do the needful, he hit my sister with his car and ran away.
“She is at the hospital right now in serious pain and the funniest part is that I messaged him on Instagram to do the needful, but this wicked fellow blocked me after reading my message.”
Omowunmi also shared videos of her bleeding sister who was undergoing treatment. The victim was injured on the head and leg.
