“If I am going to d!e, let me d!e a fine boy” – Falz shares how he was attacked almost k!lled on a highway in Abuja

Rapper Falz has recounted how he was attacked together with his friends by armed robbers, which almost cost him his life. Falz made this revelation during an interview with “Untapped,” where he stated that he and two of his friends were involved in the November 16, 2013, incident on an Abuja highway, which resulted in the death of their driver. The rapper recalled the incident and said that he and his friends started saying their final prayers because they felt like they were going to die too. The incident happened as they were traveling to an Abuja wedding where Falz was scheduled to perform for payment.

They were going to travel by plane, but since they had not purchased their tickets in time, a friend of his named Sule suggested they travel by road, which is what they ultimately did. However, one of his friends expressed disapproval of them taking the road and asked the rapper to pray before they continued, erasing the thought because it was during the day. He and his friends talked to the driver about his driving style and he promised to make changes, so they fell asleep while driving. A loud bang woke them up, and they saw a man holding a gun in the middle of the road; it appeared he had fired three shots at their car three times, with the third round hitting their driver in the eye.
Describing the situation, Falz said: “We see this turban tying, AK47 welding, dangerous-looking men in the middle of the expressway maybe like 5, we could not count; they were directly shooting at our car everything was happening within seconds, so fast from the first bullet coming to us waking up, the second bullet coming to us taking cover, to the third one that hit the driver in the eye.”

Father of ‘mummy calm’ boy breaks silence following wife’s death

Father of 'mummy calm' boy breaks silence following wife's death

The father of viral little ‘mummy calm down’ boy has finally spoken up following his wife’s unexpected demise. The young man however gave a different account of his wife’s tragic demise compared to what their neighbors have reported. The incident, which occurred in Benin City, Edo State, has raised questions about the circumstances leading to her death. According to Lawal, upon returning from the market, he allegedly found their two-year-old child crying. He rushed into the house and discovered his wife hanging from a rope tied to the ceiling. Acting swiftly, he loosened the rope and called for help from their neighbors. He said that the neighbors arrived and assisted him in removing the rope from his wife’s neck. However, the neighbors have contradicted Lawal’s account. They claim that when they responded to his cries for help, they found him lying on top of his wife, with no mention of a rope being involved. This conflicting testimony has added further complexity to the investigation. Recall that Toluige Olokobi Babalola, is the woman who, along with her son, gained internet fame in 2021 after a viral video showed the little boy pleading with her saying “Be calming down and rest a little”. The shocking news of her death emerged this week when a user on Twitter revealed that Toluige committed suicide in Benin, Edo State, for reasons yet to be determined. Following the conflicting accounts, the Edo State Police Command has initiated a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Toluige’s untimely death. The Police Public Relations Officer, Chidi Nwabuzor, confirmed that the Commissioner of Police, Muhammed Dankwara, has ordered the transfer of the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for further examination. The police have recovered the rope and a purported suicide note, allegedly written by Toluige. However, upon inspecting the deceased’s body, no signs of violence were found, leaving investigators puzzled. The absence of physical evidence has intensified the need for a comprehensive investigation to determine the truth behind Toluige’s tragic demise.
