According to a statement by the Police PRO, Edgal Imohimi, the singer was under investigation, prior to his arrest. He was said to have fired live ammunition at the Agege stadium after his performance on the 27th of November. Pellets from the gun were however, said to have injured four people. The casualties were rushed to the hospital while Small Doctor was questioned by the CID.

The Police PRO however said the singer will be prosecuted.

It was alleged that some unknown men, four of them, in an unregistered green SUV had brought out a gun and threatened a policeman that if he does not leave the road, they will shoot him.

Believing that they were armed robbers, I sent out my men and fortunately, with the DPO in charge of Shogunle division, they were able to intercept them and the men were arrested and were brought down to the headquarters for interrogation.

It was then discovered that one of them is the same Adekunle Temitope, a.k.a. ‘Small Doctor’. They were arrested in possession of a functional rifle, cartridge and some of their personal belongings.
