Kehinde Adegbodu has raised the alarm following a distressing attack on his family home by suspected armed men, further deepening the family’s grief after a recent loss.
Adegbodu, who spoke with R, recounted how the assailants invaded their residence and demanded valuables, including money, phones, and other personal belongings.
He lamented that the attack came less than two weeks after the burial of his twin brother, noting that the perpetrators appeared to have assumed he had money at home from funds raised before the burial.
He disclosed that he was in Osogbo at the time the incident occurred, leaving his family vulnerable when the armed men, said to be four in number, stormed the house.
According to him, the attackers specifically asked after him and forced their way into his personal room, where they carted away several valuables believed to belong to him.
The gunmen were said to have encountered his wife, children, and the wife of his late twin brother, Taiwo Adegbodu, who is still mourning her husband’s death, making the situation even more traumatic for the household.
The attack reportedly occurred just days after the burial of his twin brother, compounding the emotional strain on the family during an already difficult period.
Adegbodu stated that he was away in Osogbo when the incident happened, adding that the attackers went straight to his room after asking for him and made away with his valuables, leaving his family in fear.
He further expressed concern over the targeted nature of the attack, suggesting that the perpetrators may have had prior knowledge about him and his residence.
The singer also appealed to the public and security agencies for assistance, as many Nigerians have continued to express sympathy and outrage over the incident, describing it as both heartbreaking and alarming.
