This follows after the report of the singer’s questioning by police over rape allegation brought against him by a woman named Seyitan Babatayo.
Babatayo accused him of raping her after forcing husband way into her hotel room in December 2018.
D’Banj social distancing flouting incident comes barely weeks after fellow singer, Naira Marley, was also criticised for performing at a concert in Abuja on June 14.
This led to the closure of Jabi Lake Mall, where the concert was held and the suspension of the operating license of ExecuJet, the jet services provider which flew him and his crew from Lagos to Abuja in violation of the coronavirus travel ban.
