The police in Lagos have said that Tagbo Umeike, the late friend of music artiste, Davido, died from suffocation.
Acting Police Commissioner Imohimi Edgal stated this at a briefing on Wednesday afternoon, where he announced that Davido has been re-invited for questioning.
According to Edgal, the autopsy report revealed that Tagbo died from suffocation, adding that he was abandoned in his car at the hospital by Davido’s driver and two of his friends.
Edgal said Davido has been reinvited for questioning because he lied that he only knew of Tagbo’s demise while he was at DNA night club, in Victoria Island, a claim that has been found to be untrue.

Truth coming out gradually..
ReplyDeleteAzzzin eh...very soon fowl yansh go open
DeleteWatching on 3D.
DeleteHe's killers will not outrun the long arm of the law in Jesus name Amen.
Your comment will be visible after approval
Why lie in the first place???
DeleteThis is becoming interesting...
I read the 2 guys have been arrested. Still in the office jare.
ReplyDeleteDavido hmmmmmmm i pray you come out of this unscathed. It is well
Eerrrrr yeah he's gonna come out.is it not Nigeria again????The police will soon change all the stories and turn the whole investigation around and voila!!!!! Davido will be free from this scandal.runbish country.But my own opinion is Davido didn't kill that guy,they've all been drinking excessively and were all bladdered,none of them was thinking straight,what happened was actually carelessness,leaving a already drunk person in the car without air cos i'm sure they didn't remember to wind down any window screen when they left him in the car,thereby causing him to suffocate.Davido didn't force feed Tagbo with achohol and I don't think he physically suffocated him neither,but the thing is when things like this happens,people always look for someone to blame.see what living wreckless has caused you now Davido.i hope you'll learn from this ordeal and try live responsibly after this,cos you are a musician doesn't mean you cant be responsible.
DeleteNa only God kuku know what transpired dt night
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm. Osetigo!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm
ReplyDeleteInteresting!
In as much as I feel the pain of family of the bereaved,i think they re just trying to drag Davido into all these..alcohol kills dem no dey hear...
ReplyDeleteYou think they are dragging Davido into this? What a stupid comment! Why did Davido lie that he only knew the guy that night at the parlour? Someone he knew long before that night? And why were his drivers involved?
DeleteJust stfu, fool!if tagbo where your brother will u say the same thing?..mtcheew ..insane people everywhere
DeleteNo one is dragging Davido into it cause he's already involved
DeleteYou guys should leave sentiments asides and look at this with a neutral mind
Davido, has got some questions to answer
You think death is a small thing?
That he lied alone is enough to suspect him.
What are you saying?
DeleteWhy did he lie in the first place?
As it is now, my only worry is, this matter might just be swept under the carpet in the long run being that Davido is from an influential home.
People will learn from ur mistake to drink moderately...yesterday i lost a friend to kidney failure,that guys smoked like his life depended on it..
ReplyDeleteOkay quite understandable but in this three friends of someone reportedly died the same way, isn't it mysterious enough?
Delete🕺🕺🕺
Intoxication can cause suffocation if the victim chokes on his own vomit. Hopefully they’re not in a hurry to pin this on somebody because of media sensationalism. From the facts so far, it seems alcohol and wrong choices and decisions played a major role.
ReplyDeleteThe autopsy will report vomtus in the airway if the case was so. stop making excuses.
DeleteGbege! Rip to 'em guys. Only God knows!
ReplyDeleteI smell something fishy..
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahah i knew was just a matter of time before they jail him.
ReplyDeleteJail him how!!! Take it easy ké,did Davido break your heart before ni.they can't jail him without any concrate evidence.its all just speculations flying around. Alcohol kills,making bad decisions can be disastrous,Davido was scared of being accused,reason why he's been lying.but common people let's be real,Davido didn't kill Tagbo.i'm surprised the police are not even talking about checking whatever they must have been drinking to be sure they werent fake drinks.Amy Winehouse died of fake vodka overdose,they did all the necessary investigation.cant Nigeria police do their job properly and solve this case,if Tagbo died of suffocation,how is that Davido's fault,even if they left him in the car,is Tagbo not an adult and responsible for looking after himself?he should've think twice before drinking himself to stupor,moreso Davido has been drinking too,bunch of drunkards cant make good decisions.They should rule this as an accidental death,case closed.i hope some people will learn from this,if you must drink,drink responsibly.May Tagbo soul rest in peace
DeleteJail who? Story for the gods. In as much as I sympathize with Tagbo's family, he made very wrong choices, Nobody murdered him, I guess they realised he was dead after they left him in the car and really made the right choice of dropping him in the hospital, and the wrong choice of running away.
DeleteIf you carry another person corpse, it seems like you're carrying a log of wood. @anon 21:33,you say they should rule it as accidental death and case close, really? Because he's not your relative right? Okay pray that what you wish people does not await you. David is going to jail if he has a hand in this, no two ways about it.
DeleteAnonymous 21:33, Amy Winehouse died of 'fake' vodka overdose? I bow for you o. Spouting nonsense like you know what you're talking about. Google is your friend. There was nothing fake about the vodka, she was 4 times over what is considered the legal driving limit.
DeleteReal trouble brewing for omo baba olowo.......chai
ReplyDeleteI hope the truth comes out.
ReplyDeleteOmo See Gobe!!
ReplyDeleteHr probably choked on his own vomit in the wound up car..
ReplyDeleteOh dear!!!
Lying and abandoning their friend in the hospital was just careless. I guess they panicked.
Chai! Tagbo just lost his life within a twinkle of an eye. If only we can reverse events!
He did not choke on his vomit, if it's the case, autopsy would've shown that and they wouldn't have arrested Davido' s staff. Think constructively people.
Delete“Constructively” speaking, what caused the suffocation then?. You seem to know somethings we don’t. Suffocation just doesn’t happen something had to have happened to cause suffocation. Everyone can assume any cause until your so called autopsy gives a full report.
DeleteAnon, I used the word 'probably'
DeleteSince you were there.. Who I'm I to speculate?
Please, pray tell, What happened?
Remove please*
DeleteSuffocation is caused by lack of air, when you cover someone's face with a pillow, the person suffocates Cus there's no air going in. Same way if you close the doors of a car and the person cannot open it, the person suffocates. If it was vomit they would have seen it in his troath and Davido would have said something by now. Women get arrested for negligence when their kids suffocates in their cars, so no davido did not kill him, Cus he dint have the knowledge of the dangers of leaving someone in a locked car, but then again ignorance isn't reason, they deserve punishment for negligence even if they were also high. Na who dey alive they receive punishment
DeleteAll the questioning means is that they are trying to gather information on what transpired during the course of the evening leading up to the death. Had someone stuck around at the hospital and provided the medical authorities with all of this it would not have become what it is today. Doing the right thing is always the simpler way. The suspicion comes from how they treated this young man and it was their supposed 'friend'. Bunch of morons with money
ReplyDeleteYes oh. He's not considered as their "friend" & really Davido doesn't "know him at all" as he is saying now.
Delete***lesson here: it is not every gathering ur invited or called upon to attend is for own good!!!
Some associations with certain type of people is not good for u!!!
Reckless life is not good!!!
People who r ashamed of u or disown u in the slightest perception or thought of "trouble" r ur #1 ENEMIES!!!
KEEP FAR AWAY FROM EVERY UNHELPFUL FRIENDS, BECAUSE IN UR DEATH DUE TO NEGLIGENCE OR ABANDONEMENT, THEY WILL CAUSE U MORE GRIEF & DISHONOR!!!
Finally, act ur age in the public & in private, unless if ur mentally sick!!!
Why on earth is a 35 yrs old man fooling around in the bar with small kids young enough to his kids? Drink himself to death because of less than $300 promise & cheap phone promise?
*nigerian men & women please grow up & act ur age!!!
Old men enjoying company of little kids every where. Tufiakwa!!
The most annoying & disgusting is the old politicians dancing skelewu & azonto like teenegers in the public.
Grandfathers sitting in the beer palour & doing drinking competition with the youths!!!
U see our old men & women from nigeria fooling around like little babies. Poverty mentality is a deadly curse indeed.
Hmmmmmmm 😣
ReplyDeleteWhen DJ Olu died Davido was quick to mourn. But how come he was silent about Tagbo's until caro spoke?? If a friend he was partying with surprisingly passes on few hours later, Davido won't be sooo silent.
ReplyDeleteI believe he knew something was 'off' and they didn't talk cos of street creed. The boy is dead Abeg make them just talk true. Cos we all know Davido can't go prison in Nigeria.
And that tagbo he didn't see his mates to hang out with? As a man, by 28 latest you should be done with some risky childish behavior and be more responsible, knowing your own limits. See all the rubbish drama now.
Evans shift, I think you may have a room mate. Anon mode. Jacob when I say oseh, you say baddess. The police are really working
ReplyDeleteWhy won't they work?
DeleteIs it not Adeleke's money at work?
Dead bodys that maggots have already feasted on Tey tey but this one sharp sharp autopsy don commot. Kikikikikikikikik I laugh in tequila.
Again I ask what why an almost 40 year old be hanging out with a 24 year old going on 14? At that age you are still forming crew? Lolll.
I asked this question and one gremlin with the IQ of fried fish came to convulse under my comment.
As you sow your bed, lie on it.
Nothing surprising here.
So this one was suffocation, the other one maybe plate of beans.
I wonder WHO is next????
The truth will come out clear soon.... the real truth is what we want
ReplyDeleteIt's really so Sad.If it was Davido that died the way Tagbo did,do you know what will be happening right now?How his family would have reacted?Uhmm! God dey sha.I am
ReplyDeletenot saying Davido killed this guy deliberately ,but he is not blameless in Tagbos'' s death.Too much Recklessness,as if he is the only one who made it as a star.In as much as i am so fond of Davido,i know he is really ill mannered and too wild.When you wriggle out of this,you would have learnt some lessons,Davido.
But the news report here is incomplete, Stella. Other newspapers reported that the police confirmed that from the CCTV footage Tagbo indeed consumed about 40 shots of tequila.
ReplyDeleteTee
Hmmmmnm
ReplyDeleteStupidity kills...... God gave us brains so we can make decisions. You hang out with a rough crowd, dont blame anyone when something unpleasant happen to you. I bet the family of the dead dude had seen him hanging with Davido and crew before now but never cautioned him? Na wetin dey sweet man dey kill am most times.
