Recall that in 2020, the singer was accused of rape, and the Inspector General of Police launched an investigation.

The police and the anti-graft agency granted the ‘Fall-In-Love’ crooner a clean slate in separate clearing reports.

In an affidavit deposed by Toheeb Lawal of the Abuja-based law firm Law Corridor before the District Court of Abuja, the legal practitioner stated that the police and ICPC cleared the singer of rape and fraud allegations.informationguidenigeria
