Club shooting: Victim’s wife accuses Burna Boy’s people of bribing family
-
Victim’s Wife alleges that Burna Boy’s team is trying to hush them with money.
Briella Neme, the wife of the man who was shot with his friends by policemen who were escorting Damini Ebuoluwa Ogulu, commonly known as Burna Boy, in Club Cubana, Victoria Island, Lagos State, has accused him of attempting to bribe her family with ‘hush money.’
She continued by saying that the rapper and singer intended to murder them on that fateful night.
She made the revelation yesterday on her Instagram page, in response to a charge made by a supposed eyewitness, who said she went to have a shoot (picture) with Burna Boy in his VVIP’s top corner when her husband physically dragged her away.
The eyewitness on his Twitter, handle @AfricansOracle, had said, “Briella was the one who went up to Burna Boy to take photos and that Burna Boy’s security men only resisted the confrontational approach.”
Meanwhile, reacting to the post, Neme, shared a video of the scene, describing the eyewitness account as false.
She said that since the incident, Burna Boy’s family had visited to settle the matter.
In the narration via her Instagram page, @nemebriella, she wrote,
“We were visiting Nigeria from America and London for our childhood friend’s wedding.
“On June 18, 2022, @burnaboygram and his friends opened fire at us in @cubanalagos.
“My partner and his friend were shot, with both needing urgent medical care. A bullet grazed my partner’s head and our friend was shot in the thigh, leaving him hospitalised and needing emergency surgery in Nigeria.
“At this point, I couldn’t find my partner or my best friend. I was screaming for help after being lifted and thrown so hard on the floor by one of Burna Boy’s friends and I hurt my left shoulder..
“All our private police officers were not allowed into the club, so, it was left to us to fight for our lives. One of our friends @theflowolf was trying to get Burna Boy to calm the situation but he only laughed at him and proceeded to get in his car whilst being protected by his security.

“The shootings happened twice at different times. His friends were also shooting at people trying to evacuate the club through the main entrance.
“They were out to kill and didn’t care who got hit. My partner’s head was bleeding profusely and his friend lost so much blood that he needed a donor as soon as he got to the hospital.
“@burnaboygram left @cubanalagos without a scratch and flew out to Spain the next morning.
” Everyone keeps making this about money. Money is not our problem. If you did nothing wrong @burnaboygram, why were your people contacting us to offer us hush money? Why did your parents visit our parents yesterday?”
