Police release Dammy Krane six days after, apologises to Davido
Nigerian singer Oyindamola Emmanuel Johnson-Hunga, popularly known as Dammy Krane has been released from police custody after spending nearly a week in detention at the Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) in Abuja.
Dammy Krane was arrested on allegations related to cybercrime.
The singer’s arrest on August 22nd followed allegations he made against fellow musician, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido, accusing him of orchestrating his arrest.
LEADERSHIP reported that Krane claimed that Davido paid the police to detain him under false pretenses, alleging involvement in illegal activities related to Flutterwave and cryptocurrency scams.
In a statement released during his detention, Krane warned, “Davido should be held accountable if anything happens to me.”
However, in a twist to the unfolding drama, Krane has since retracted his accusations. In a video shared by social media activist VeryDarkMan following his release, Krane was seen expressing gratitude and apologising to Davido.

“I wanna say a big thank you to my brother. I know there are a lot of words that ought not to be said. I know. I want to apologise for this Tagbo death allegation. Make una still remember David is my brother. And we are going to find a major ground to resolve everything,” he said, referring to a past dispute involving the death of Tagbo Umeike, a mutual friend.
Krane also thanked the police commissioner in Abuja and VeryDarkMan for their support during his time in custody.
The FCID spokesperson, Funmilayo Eguaoje, confirmed Krane’s release but did not provide details on the specific charges or reasons for his detention, stating only that he was interrogated by the cybercrime unit.
The ongoing feud between Krane and Davido dates back several months, with Krane accusing Davido of owing him money for songwriting contributions and sabotaging his record deal with Sony Music. In response, Davido labeled Krane “ungrateful” and denied any payment obligations, claiming he had provided shelter and support to Krane during a difficult period when he was homeless. Davido also dismissed the allegations related to Tagbo Umeike’s death, threatening to sue Krane for “defamation of character and cyberbullying.”
Meanwhile, Krane has announced the release of a new project titled ‘King of Afrobeats,’ scheduled for September 6. In his video message, he urged fans to focus on spreading positive energy and music, saying, “It is still WorldStar movement. Let us spread more music.”

I’ll turn down suitor who doesn’t support my career – Imade Osawuru, actress
Renowned Nollywood filmmaker, Imade Osawaru, known for her captivating performances in movies like A Fool for Trust; Last Affair; and Sweet Mama’s House, has revealed her expectations from Mr. Right and what would make her reject a suitor.
A native of Ugha Okhuoihe in Edo State, Osawaru revealed that honesty, respect, and emotional maturity are non-negotiable qualities in her potential partner.
“I value honesty, respect, and emotional maturity in any relationship. A suitor who lacks these qualities, or someone who doesn’t support my career and ambitions, would definitely be a no-go for me. Mutual respect is key. Everyone has faced heartache at some point, and I’m no exception. It’s always painful, but I believe in learning from those experiences, focusing on personal growth, and moving forward with grace. Life has taught me to never let disappointment define me,” she told Saturday Sun.
