The Lagos Police Command says they are investigating the alleged threats against musician, Tiwa Savage by her colleague Davido.
This was confirmed on Wednesday by the Lagos Police spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin.
”I can confirm that we received the petition. We have begun an investigation,” he said.
This comes barely 24 hours after Tiwa Savage, in a petition to the police, urged them to hold Davido responsible should anything happen to her.
In the complaint with the Lagos Police Command, she alleged a threat of assault and 'grievous' bodily harm from Davido.
Tiwa Savage explained that the discord in her relationship with Davido surfaced following her association with his former partner and the mother of his daughter, Imade.
Additionally, Tiwa revealed that mutual friends had alerted her to Davido’s anger and alleged threats, warning her to “be careful in Lagos because he was going to f”*k me up.”

She expressed her discomfort with Davido’s unwarranted messages and highlighted her right to live her life without fear of harassment.
“The actions of Mr David Adeleke are unethical and can be viewed as a direct threat to my rights to life, privacy and dignity of my person,” Tiwa Savage added.
“I, therefore, would like to make this complaint, and to state that in the event that anything untoward or harmful were to happen to me and any member of my family, I will like the Nigerian Police Force to hold MR DAVID ADELEKE responsible.”
