Afrobeats producer, Adegboyega Ikwue Ogunlesi, also known as Adey, has claimed he was shot at during an encounter with Nigeria Police operatives in Lagos.

According to him, the officers who shot at him claimed he tried to kill them on the highway on Monday, January 6.

He claimed that the officers nearly damaged his car by seizing the steering wheel and steering him into a ditch. On his X handle, he wrote:

“Nigerian police shot at me today, claimed I tried to kill them, and almost totalled my car by grabbing the steering wheel and driving me into a ditch.

“No wahala.”

“You will not kill me

My Guardian angels are stronger

Son of a strong man.”
