COZA: Police confirms invitation of Bisola, Dakolo

The Nigeria Police Force has confirmed that its operatives had served official invitation letters on Timi Dakolo, a popular musician, and his wife, Busola Dakolo and others over the rape allegations made by Mrs Dakolo against Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo, a senior pastor at Commonwealth Zion Assembly (COZA).

DCP Frank Mba, Force Public Relations Officer in a statement said the “invitation is sequel to an on-going police investigation touching on the wider and highly publicized case involving Bisola Dakolo, Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo and others.

“It is important however to note that a Police Invitation Letter is not synonymous with a Warrant of Arrest, and must not be construed to be one. Rather, it is a polite investigative tool used in eliciting information voluntarily from parties to aid police investigations.

“Members of the public should see it as a legitimate act in line with the constitutional mandate of the police, which among other things include the investigation of all complaints brought before it.

“The Inspector General of Police, IGP MA Adamu NPM, mni has appealed for calm, and is reassuring Nigerians that the Police Force under his watch will remain professional, impartial and unreservedly committed to the pursuit of justice in this case and all other cases before it.”
