Abiodun Alamutu, Ogun State Commissioner of Police, ,on Saturday, condemned the shooting of a popular Nollywood actor, Azeez Ijaduade, by a cop in the state.

The police boss reacted to the incident during his visit to the actor at Babcock University Teaching Hospital, Ilishan Remo in Ikenne Local Government Area of the state.

It will be recalled that the actor was rushed to the hospital after he was mistakenly shot by a trigger-happy cop attached to a Chinese expatriate.

 

Speaking in an interview with journalists, the Police Commissioner disclosed that the officer who fired the shot is already facing disciplinary action.

 

According to him, the unnamed cop had fired a bullet into the air to disperse thugs who wanted to mob the personality he was attached to.

 

Alamutu, who said the shooting was unfortunate and uncalled for, expressed joy that the actor is in a stable condition.

He noted that although there were times officers would need to fire shots to disperse crowds, he added that there was no justification for the one at hand.

 

He noted that the officer had conducted himself unprofessionally and would be made to face disciplinary action.

Alamutu said, “It was actually an unfortunate incident, but from all indications, I have seen the victim, it was not a direct hit. Actually, some people were trying to mob the principal the policeman was attached with, and to scare them off, he had to fire some shots. It was unfortunate the victim was within that axis. It was the shell that hit the victim.”

He, however, allayed the fear of the public, saying the victim was already recuperating.

 

“From what I have seen so far, he’s recuperating, only that he needs to be observed for some time to ensure that no vital part of his body is affected. From the way I see him, I believe none is affected. But that can only be certified by the medical experts,” he said.

Popular Yoruba actor, Abdul Salam Taofeek, better known in the industry as Tioruju Mondusi, has revealed how he discovered that two of the five children he raised were not biologically his.

The actor known for playing various characters, told African A List, in an interview, how his world began to crumble when he returned home from a film set to find his wife, who was heavily pregnant with their fifth child at the time, not at home. One of his children told him she had been gone for three days.

He recounted how he went to his mother-in-law’s house to report the matter. There, he saw a framed photo of his wife with another man hanging on the wall.

Mondusi said when he confronted her, she admitted that he was not the father of her unborn child. The revelation led to a serious fight between them.

He said he later learned that another man had signed the consent form for her cesarean section, a man he had previously seen at her shop but never suspected as a lover.

The actor said that after giving birth, his wife, now late, called him to come for the child, but he refused. According to him, undeterred, she showed up at his house with the baby and the other man.

“The person who offended me to the point that I questioned ‘why me’ is the mother of my children, but she is late now. I travelled to a location, and when I got back, she wasn’t at home. One of my children told me she had not been around for three days, and at the time she was nine months pregnant with our fifth child,” he said.

“I went to her mother’s house to report the situation, and when I got there, I saw a picture of her and another man hanging on the wall. I called her to confront her, and that was when she told me I was not the father of the unborn child. That led to a serious fight.

“When she gave birth through a CS, I was told it was another man who signed the consent form. I had met the man before at my wife’s shop, but I didn’t know they were having an affair. After giving birth, she called me again and asked me to come for my child, but because she had already told me I was not the father, I refused.

“She later brought the child to my house with the man she was having an affair with. I was very angry, so I called the police on them. At the police station, when she was asked who I was, she said I was the father of her children and that the other man was her husband.

“Meanwhile, the man was begging me to withdraw the case because his wife must not find out, as he was married with four children as well. We eventually left the police station, but I still did not accept the child.”

He said that less than a month after involving the police, his wife served him court papers for divorce.

The actor said in court that she confessed that only three of the five children were actually his.

“Less than a month later, I received a court summons that my wife wanted a divorce, and I also agreed to it. It was in court that she confessed that, out of the five children she claimed were mine, only three were actually mine, while two belonged to the other man,” he added.

“She said the first, second, and fourth children were mine, meaning I was not the father of the third and fifth. Meanwhile, I was the one taking care of the children, doing their naming ceremonies, and even burying their placentas.

“She died last year, and I still feel deeply pained whenever I remember the situation.”
