Damilola Usman, a friend of Tagbo
Umeike the friend to Nigerian hip hop star David Adeleke, a.k.a Davido, has
identified questions the singer must answer over his friend’s death.
There have been several twists
concerning the death of Tagbo, who died on his birthday after partying with
Davido and his crew.
Davido had on Thursday released a
CCTV footage that showed a staggering Tagbo obviously intoxicated, leaving the
Shisha Room.
However Damilola who is a family
friend of the deceased, said the police investigation would not be based on the
viral video.
He said the police also has a
CCTV footage which showed the way Tagbo was dumped in the hospital.
Damilola told Punch, “The CCTV in
the hospital showed the guys that dropped him and the way he was dropped at the
hospital.
“From my observation, the police
investigation would not be based on the CCTV from the Shisha Room where they
went to drink.
“Davido is only trying to defend
himself by releasing the CCTV video footage of the Shisha Room because the
police already have that footage and they had seen it before Davido’s camp
released the video . I believe they are going to base their investigation on
the hospital ’s CCTV.
“The question that Davido has
been asked is why he asked people to drop Tagbo at the hospital and he is
denying the claims.
“They are asking Davido why his
escorts would leave him to go and drop Tagbo ’s body in the hospital.
“He is showing us the Shisha Room
CCTV which revealed that the guy was drunk.
“We are all aware that he was
drunk, but how did they treat him after realising that he was drunk?
“That is the question that he is
being asked but he is trying to evade it.
“They are his boys; one of them
was wearing a red fez cap and an Adidas clothing head to toe. The guys that
went to drop him are Davido’s friend.
“I saw one of the guys at the
Shisha Room on that fateful day and later that night, I also saw him at the
Elegushi Beach but I don ’t know when they went to drop him at the hospital.
The police already have all the evidence they need and they are investigating
the matter.
“The footage that was released
which showed that Tagbo was high at the Shisha Room is not the issue; the
question is what happened after.”

It is sad but the victim too had a fault. We are all warned never to drink to stupor. Excessive drinking destroys life but people will never listen. Why would he drink so much to the extent that he was staggering? It's unfortunate he's dead now and the situation is irreversible. However, those around him should be sanctioned according to the laws of the land if they contributed to his death in any way. They are all birds of the same feather.
