Nigerian hip hop singer, Eedris Abdul-Kareem, was arrested
last week for allegedly beating up his landlord.
The “Jaga Jaga crooner” was reported to have attacked his
landlord, Oladipo Abimbola, over unpaid and accumulated electricity bills of
N535,000 at his rented apartment at Valley View Estate, Ikeja, Lagos.
The landlord who lodged a complaint to the police alleged
that the confrontation took place on January 3, 2020, at Valley View Estate,
Ikeja, according to Daily Trust.
The landlord said he had instructed officials of Ikeja
Electricity Distribution ( IKED) to disconnect Eedris’ supply which led to the
harassment and intimidation.
The landlord also claimed that he was unaware that Eedris
Abdul-Kareem was to be his tenant when he rented the flat.
According to him, Abdul-Kareem’s wife rented the apartment
on behalf of her husband who she later identified as Eedris.
Reacting to the statement issued by the landlord, Eedris
Abdul-Kareem alleged that his landlord had sexually harassed his wife in his
absence and that all efforts to make him stop failed.
He also claimed that his landlord has once been arrested for
a previous case of sexual harassment against a female tenant.
However, the case is still ongoing while further reports are
expected, Daily Trust reported.
