Singer David Oyeleke aka Davido is currently under fire over accusations that he dumped the body of his friend who died mysteriously in his car at the hospital and went back to party.
The accusations were made by renown actress Caroline Danjuma who is a close friend to the guy whose death is in question identified as Tagbo Umeike.
According to the actress Davido and his crew dumped his body at the hospital and went back to partying at a club. She added that Davido and his crew wore face caps to disguise when they allegedly dumped him at the hospital claiming he drank himself to death. Caroline wrote in her first Instagram post:
“Davido where is Tagbo …. he was with you and ur crew last night … you all wore face cap to hide your identities after he died in ur car.. u dumped him at general hospital and ran away … the law must play its role this time .. you all better provide Tagbo alive .. @davidoofficial.

Meanwhile a photo journalist Elejo has corroborated seeing the late Tagbo leave Oniru in Davido’s car and just few hours before Tagbo’s death became public knowledge yesterday. He wrote:
Davido has few minutes ago released his first official statement calling Caroline’s claims LIES. On his snapchat:
I was deeply saddened to hear of the sudden death of my friend Tagbo. 1st and foremost my sincere condolences and prayers are with his family at this time. I’ve been in the same position before, multiple times and also of recent.
But it is also disappointing that false information and complete lies have been put out there using my name, as usual. Out of total respect for Tagbo and his family I will not
discuss this matter further for now.Rest In Peace Tagbo.
David Adeleke
These grave allegations come barely 24 hours after Davido became the most followed Nigerian celebrity on Instagram with 5 million followers.
Tagbo Umeike, according to his Facebook profile is an alumni of Home Science Association Secondary School and a graduate of Lagos State University. He once had a stint as an engineer with ASTRA Engineering and he’s been around quite a couple of popstars and entertainers, Including Modenine.
Here’s hoping the truth comes to light soon.
