“My identity looks like that of a criminal, but I’m an artiste” – Man arrested by Lagos police

An upcoming artiste, King of Madness was on Wednesday paraded by operatives of the Lagos State Police Command at the State Police Headquarters in Ikeja.

The young man stated that he was arrested after some policemen stopped the Uber ride he had boarded on his way to a show at Lekki around 10.45pm.

According to PUNCH, he said he still doesn’t understand how he landed at the police command.

King of Madness said, “I still don’t know. They told me that I was being taken to meet a DPO. I just saw myself here this morning. I still don’t understand what’s happening.”

According to him, no incriminating material was found on him, adding that the policemen gave him permission to make a video while they were frisking him.

“My identity looks like that of a criminal, but I’m an artiste, not a cultist,” King of Madness said as he took off his shirt to reveal his body covered in tattoos.

He added that, “My mummy used to tell me that there’s a way a book will be too dirty that you won’t be able to touch it let alone identify its content.

“They are judging me by my appearance.”
