OdumoduBlvck's Lawyers Petition Police Over 3 AM Arrest Attempt

On August 31, 2026, lawyers representing Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu, known as OdumoduBlvck, submitted a petition to the Lagos State Police Command after an alleged attempt to arrest him in the early hours of August 29, 2026. The petition, filed by Marshal Attorneys, was addressed to the Assistant Commissioner of Police at the State Criminal Investigation Department.

The legal team criticized the police for arriving with an invitation letter at approximately 3:00 AM, labeling the action as inappropriate and procedurally irregular. They highlighted that the matter was already under the jurisdiction of the Inspector General of Police's office and that related proceedings were pending in a Magistrate Court.

The attorneys emphasized that their client had not evaded any lawful process and had responded to all legitimate invitations. They requested an urgent inquiry into the incident and urged the police command to defer the matter to the Inspector General of Police's office, which was already engaged with the case.
