Popular Nigerian singer Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe Kizz Daniel, has been released from police custody in Tanzania.
This was revealed in a tweet by the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission @nidcom_gov (NiDCOM).
Recall a video that went viral on social media on Monday showed the moment Tanzanian authorities arrested the singer in Dar-es-Salaam.
NiDCOM in a tweet revealed that the singer was being held at Oyster Bay Police Station Civil Police in Dar-es-Salaam, the Tanzanian capital city.
The tweet reads:
“We are presently engaging our Mission and see what can be done. We will keep the public posted with our investigation. Thank you,” the Commission added.
Giving an update afterwards, NiDCOM said: “Kizz Daniel has been released. His legal team will, however, report back to the police tomorrow while he will subsequently return to Nigeria.”
Although no official statement was issued by the authorities, it was learnt that the arrest was not unconnected with the singer’s failure to perform at an event in the country.
