Controversial disc jockey and internet personality, Ademola Abiodun, popularly known online as DJ Chicken, has been arrested by security operatives in Ikeja, Lagos.
The high-profile arrest follows a widespread public backlash over a highly provocative TikTok video shared by the content creator, which contained direct verbal threats directed toward Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigeria’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Confirming the development in an emotional online video broadcast on Thursday, DJ Chicken’s defense attorney, Barrister Rotimi Stephen, disclosed that his client was successfully taken into law enforcement custody and is being held at the State Police Headquarters in Ikeja.
The legal practitioner further noted that based on intelligence, operatives from the Department of State Services (DSS) are heavily involved in the coordinated security operation due to the national security implications of the digital threat.
The legal trouble stems directly from a controversial video in which DJ Chicken claimed in Yoruba that if President Tinubu won political office, he would kill his son, Seyi Tinubu.
Making an urgent public appeal to the Presidency for administrative forgiveness, Stephen characterized his client as an unstable individual whom he has simply been mentoring to give back to society. "Please, fans and well-wishers please... please forgive Chicken. He is not that okay. We are just managing him.
Government should please forgive him," the lawyer pleaded. No formal statement has been released by the Lagos State Police Command regarding his prosecution.
