The Nigeria Police
Force has reconciled Blogger Linda Ikeji and music artiste, WizKid over social
media threat, reports ITRealms.
The reconciliation
follows the reporting of both with their team of legalese at the Police
Headquarters in Lagos.
Confirming this
in a press statement made available to Vangaurd, Linda Ikeja stated that:
“So, I am going
to write about this Wizkid matter for the very last time. Anything else after
this will no longer concern me. So Wizkid and I met with the Commissioner of
Police today and when the Commissioner asked me what I wanted them to do with
the case… I told him that I wanted peace.
“And the reason
why I insisted on peace and not to drag the matter further, that is, go to
court, is because Wizkid and his lawyers have been apologizing since Friday, up
until today!
“I spoke with
Wizkid through his lawyer on Friday April 15th where he tendered an apology to
me and said he wasn’t a violent person, that he didn’t mean what he said, that
it was just an emotional outburst.
“And then he
asked for forgiveness. Please continue… But despite forgiving him, he still had
to show up at the Police HQ to officially apologize and write an undertaken
which he did today. I see a lot of negativity has come out of this case with
Wizkid – with many folks bashing me for reporting a threat on my person.
“But here’s my
consolation and why I am glad this happened. I promise you, especially the
ladies, Wizkid will never threaten you with harm again. At least, not in
public. I believe I am the last bus stop. He will think twice before
threatening another human being again on social media.
“A police file
has been opened for him, and he has been cautioned. The day he threatens
another human being again with harm, then… Having said that, I turned down
taking a photo with him and the police commissioner this afternoon.'
“One of his
people took a pic of him and the commissioner with me in it and my people
insisted they delete it. Not because I haven’t forgiven him, I just don’t need
the extra drama.
“I wish Wizkid
all the best and will continue to celebrate him.
“God bless us
all.”
