Actress Victoria Inyama has reacted to the statement of the married woman whose husband was shot at a club by singer Burna Boy’s police escorts, saying that they need to be locked away.
Qed.ng reported the Lagos State Police Commissioner’s Special Squad detained five policemen attached to Burna Boy for attempted murder after they shot two clubbers Lawrence Irebami, the husband of the woman Burna Boy allegedly made sexual advances to and another identified simply as Tolu, at Club Cubana in Lagos last Wednesday.
Breaking her silence in an Instagram post on Sunday, the woman identified as Briella stated that she is still traumatised over the event and her husband and his best friend are still healing from the wounds inflicted on them.
Reacting in an Instagram post on Monday, Victoria wrote: “Thank God for social media…People in Diaspora need to know places to Avoid!!!!.. But did you formally report to the police?….. What did the police do? Clearly, the club is Not Safe.”
While Victoria appreciated the power of social media in making the matter known to the public, another actress Shan George, defended Burna Boy, saying that the singer did not commit any crime.
She wrote: “Very sad about this incidence. Sorry sweetheart. Tho I can’t see Burna Boy’s crime in all of it. From ur story, He wasn’t holding a gun, nor shot a gun, nor quarrel wit ur friends.
“There was a shot/shots fired and Everybody was leaving and even ur friends left u behind, shouldn’t Burna Boy try to leave as well? Is d fact that he as a single guy saw a babe and likes her a crime? D law does not function on sentiments. Report to d right quarters and take it up before d law, wit evidence. Let d law take its course. Simple. Na night club we dey talk about o, wit drinks and crowd.”
