Nigerian recording artiste, D’Banj whose real name is Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo has been released almost 72 hours after he was arrested by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).
The veteran Nigerian singer-songwriter was released on Friday afternoon and he has been speaking through his lawyer over the matter.
His lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, who took to social media to announce the release of his client stated that all through his client’s detention, the singer cooperated with the Commission while telling the agency all he knew about the matter.

Mr. Olajengbesi said D’banj was released on self-recognition but didn’t confirm if the ICPC granted the singer administrative bail.
“Nothing incriminating was found on him. He was released on self-recognition. Right now, we expect the ICPC to give a letter of clearance to Dbanj because, as we have always said, he is innocent of the charges brought against him,” the lawyer said.
