A 28-year-old self-acclaimed gospel musician has begged for help saying that he took to armed robbery to source for money for the production of his maiden album in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
It was gathered that the suspect, Nurudeen Ogundairo, said the proposed album was scheduled for launch on July 24. He confessed his involvement in robbery, and said he regretted his action.
“I am a gospel musician. I needed money to enable me produce my maiden album and I got involved in robbery to raise money for the project. In fact, I had picked a date of July 24 to release the album to the public after the production,” he said.
The suspect, who was arrested with two of his band boys, identified as Tunde Joseph and Ganiu Ajibode, who allegedly participated in the robbery operations, said he had learnt his lesson after spending over two months in detention.
“I hope I can still be forgiven by the police and God over my action. It was in a bid to make headway in my musical career that I took to robbery,” he stated.
