'Buju BNXN Will Answer For Spitting On Officer' – Police Calls Out Singer

The Lagos State Police Command has reacted to popular singer, Buju BNXN’s statement that he spat on a police officer during a confrontation.

The singer took to Twitter on Wednesday, August 17, 2022, in the tweet he later deleted, saying “I just spat in a police officer and it felt so good” [sic].

Reacting, Lagos police command spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the police officers involved will be sanctioned for their misbehavior.

He, however, stated that if Buju is guilty on the other hand, he will answer for assaulting an officer.

Hundeyin on Twitter wrote: “@BNXN proudly tweeted that he ‘spat in [sic] a police officer’s face and it felt so good.’

"He has since deleted the tweet. The police officers will be sanctioned for their misbehavior if established, while Buju ‘BNXN’ will surely answer for his assault on a police officer.”

A video of Buju arguing with police officers surfaced on social media Wednesday.

However, the cause of the heated argument between the artiste and the police officers has not been ascertained.
