Mohbad: We Received Several Calls From Influential People To Release Sam Larry – Police Source

The Lagos State Police command appears to be facing mounting pressure to release music promoter Balogun Olamilekan Eletu, also known as Sam Larry, who was detained for questioning regarding the contentious demise of 27-year-old singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, widely recognized as Mohbad.

An Insider within the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) in Yaba, Lagos, who had a chat with The Guardian, disclosed that ever since Sam Larry’s arrest last week, their phone lines have been buzzing, especially with calls coming from a prominent traditional leader on the Island (whose name remains confidential) to the top dog at SCIID, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Waheed Ayilara, urging him to release Sam Larry.

The sources revealed that the individual calling made a promise to produce him whenever he was needed.

The source said, “There have been several calls to my boss to release Eletu, while the investigation continues. A renowned traditional ruler on the Island (names withheld) always calls, pleading with my boss to release him after interrogation.
