Gospel musician arrested for Lagos studio tragedy
A gospel musician has been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command in connection with the death of four persons inside a music studio in the Ajah area of Lagos State.
The incident occurred at a studio located within the HFP Shopping Complex, Abraham Adesanya area of Ajah.
Three of the deceased were reportedly members of the musician’s band, while the fourth was a blogger engaged to publicise a three-day birthday musical concert scheduled to hold at the studio.
The deceased have been identified as Mathew Ogundele, Itunu Ogundele, Joseph Sanya, and Mathew Awosanya.
Police sources confirmed that the four individuals slept overnight at the studio and were discovered dead the following morning.
A source at the Ajah Police Division told the Nigerian Tribune that the incident was reported by the husband of the studio owner, who disclosed that food was purchased for the deceased persons on the night before they were found dead.
Another police source said the studio door was locked from the inside when the individuals were checked on the next morning.
“It was when they got there the following morning that they discovered the studio door was locked from inside. The door was forced open, and the four persons were found lying motionless,” the source said.
The victims were rushed to the Mainland General Hospital, where they were confirmed dead. Their bodies were subsequently deposited at the hospital’s mortuary for autopsy.
Detectives were mobilised to the scene, where photographs were taken as part of preliminary investigations.
Confirming the incident, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Abimbola Adebisi, said the case was initially reported at the Ajah Division before being transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID).
“One suspect, identified as the organiser of the event, is in custody. Investigation is ongoing, while we await the autopsy report,” she said.
Police said further details would be made public as investigations progress.

Nigerian actress Scarlet Gomez has revealed that her husband does not care about her kissing on a movie set when speaking about trust and boundaries in marriage.
The actress, known for her remarkable performance in the Nigerian series movie “Wura”, made this disclosure in a recent episode of the Curiosity Made Me Ask.
During the discussion, media personality Isbaeu made a reference involving a man, questioning how people handle romantic encounters and the narratives they give afterwards.
He said, “I don’t know how you people do it, you’ll kiss somebody and go home and say it is Joshua I kissed. It’s not Joshua you kissed, it was Yomi Fash-Lanso you kissed.”
Reacting to the conversation, Scarlet Gomez emphasised trust and confidence in her marriage, stating that her husband is unbothered by her on-screen roles involving kissing scenes.

Basketmouth’s Ex-wife Threatens Legal Action Over Claims Paternity Fraud Ended Her Marriage
Comedian, Basketmouth’s ex-wife, Elsie Okpocha, has threatened to sue anyone spreading false news about her failed marriage.
The estranged couple got married in November 2010 and broke up in 2022 December.
Basketmouth, who announced the end of their in an Instagram post, claimed that the decision was sequel to much deliberations between the two of them.
But the claims of the paternity fraud surfaced on social media a month ago after a blog reported that Basketmouth during an interview allegedly disclosed that DNA results of their first child led to their divorce.
Reacting to the controversy on Saturday in a letter by her legal representative, Primeview Legal, Elsie denied the paternity fraud allegation and warned the public to desist from “false and unfounded” publications.
She further threatened to sue any individual or blogs found guilty of spreading such news for defamation, and invasion of privacy.
Expressing concerns over the psychological effects of such reports on her first child, she said in the legal letter shared on her Instagram page “some innocent members of the public may take such publications as the true state of things in the marriage and begin to bully their son on and off social media spaces with the consequential psychological trauma that will be inflicted on him, hence this intervention.”
Burna Boy’s mother, Bose Ogulu, has reacted to her son’s cussing and profane language using her name during a lifestream.
The singer used the curse words while denying beating DJ Tunez with his crew members.
Wizkid had in a post on X, accused Burna Boy and his 10 man team of beating the DJ in Lagos’ night club over failure to play his music.
Denying the allegation on Wednesday during a Livestream with singer Shallipopi, Burna Boy said “Na only me touch DJ Tunez, no be 10 people. Na two slaps I give am. I swear with my mama. If I dey lie, make Ogun carry my mama go anywhere wey Wizkid mama dey.”
Following Burna Boy’s claim, a clear video of the incident capturing him and his team kicking DJ Tunez on the floor went viral on social media as against his claim.
Reacting to the development, the singer’s mother, Bose Ogulu, turned to a prayer warrior.
A viral video online captured her being surrounded by her son’s crew members as they prayed against every evil declaration and spirit.
“Oloun ma je a remi kemi. Oloun ma je a remi kemi”, she prayed in Yoruba.
