Operatives of the Nigerian Police Force in Abuja have confirmed and revealed why they arrested Tonto Dikeh’s ex-boyfriend, Prince Kpokpogiri.
Recall that Prince was arrested on Tuesday morning, October 19, after he went to the hotel where Tonto lodged and threatened her with a gun if she did not hand over the keys to an SUV.
A Journalist and former Presidential aide, Jackson Ude had alleged that Tonto Dikeh is using her relationship with the Police DIG, Joseph Egbunike, to “teach Kpokpogiri a lesson” for messing with her.
However, police have described as false, the insinuation that Kpokpogiri was arrested at Trandcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja because Tonto Dikeh has a connection with the DIG in charge of Force Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Bureau, DIG Joseph Egbunike.
Prince Kpokpogiri was said to have visited the luxury hotel with two police guards in a bid to retrieve a Lexus SUV parked by Tonto Dikeh, who lodged there.
He allegedly blocked the vehicle with his car and when cautioned, his police escort reportedly threatened to shoot a female worker of the hotel.
The hotel management alerted and consequently, when the DIG in charge of Force Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Bureau, DIG Joseph Egbunike, was told about Prince’s behavior, he ordered his arrest and the policemen that went to the hotel with him.
It was gathered that his arrest is to enable him to regain his sanity.
