Police Declare Obesere Innocent Of Rape Allegation! Set To Release Full Album On The Incident
In
a chat with Encomium magazine, on Friday, March 28, 2014, the Lagos
State Police Command Spokesperson, Mrs Ngozi Braide has said Miss Nike
Olaiya who accused Obesere of rape is a blackmailer and extortionist.
She said they both agreed they had canal knowledge of each other but
Nike was only trying to blackmail him afterwards. Here’s how Encomium
puts it;
‘As
far as we're concerned, and based on the investigations carried out so
far on the matter, most of the allegations by Obesere's accuser, Olanike
Olaiya were fabricated. Although, they both admitted having canal
knowledge of each other, there was absolutely nothing to show that Nike
was raped as she claimed. It was a frame -up because the lady has
refused to honour police invitation. And the doctor's report available
to us has shown that she was not raped. We're made to understand that
this lady on her own went to Obesere's house in search of Obesere, that
she spent the nights there. She was there cooking and everybody in the
house ate.
People
in that house have equally made statements. I think there was a mutual
relationship between the two of them. Nike is a 29 year old lady, a
divorcee. I think during the period she was in the house, they had canal
knowledge of each other, and she left him after which she went to the
station to allege that she was raped. I think there was a case of mutual
relationship between both parties as well as extortion attempt’’.
"Before
she went to make such allegations, she had already contacted Obesere on
phone to demand certain amount that she was bleeding and so on. Obesere
now invited her to a hospital. The doctor examined her and he didn't
see anything abnormal. And they said for further clarification, she
should go for scan. She left and never returned to the hospital."
But
investigation is still in progress. Police would not rest until we get
to the root of the matter and we will make the outcome known to the
public.
Reacting
on the development on Saturday march 29,2014, Omo rapala , as Obesere
is known , said, I thank God I have been vindicated by the outcome of
the investigations so far conducted by the police. What's next is to
enter the studio for my next album. I thank God and that people have
identified with me so far. I am very sure the police will soon get to
the root of the matter."
Asked
to give details of the new album , he said , It's about the incident
.But I am yet to decide on its title. Marketers have shown up but it
will be marketed and distributed by Ola Oluwa records, Alaba
International Market, Lagos. By the special grace of God, it will be out
before the end of April this year, he said.
