VIDEO: DJ Chicken’s sister pleads for his release after remand over alleged threat to Seyi Tinubu

The elder sister of Nigerian content creator Ademola Abiodun, popularly known as DJ Chicken, has appealed for his release following his remand at the Kirikiri Correctional Centre.

DJ Chicken was arraigned before a Lagos magistrate’s court on July 10 over allegations of threatening to kill Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu. The court subsequently ordered that he be remanded in custody.

The charges followed a video shared on his social media platforms last week, in which he claimed that President Tinubu would not secure re-election in 2027.

In the now-deleted video, he said in Yorùbá: “Tinubu you cannot win. If you enter, I will kill Seyi Tinubu. I will not say more than that”.

In a video that has since gone viral, DJ Chicken’s sister appealed to fellow influencer Tunde Perry and Nigerians to intervene by pleading with Seyi Tinubu on her brother’s behalf to facilitate his release.

She explained that they are orphans with no other family members to rely on and appealed for forgiveness.

“Please, Tunde Perry, I’ve heard a lot about you. Please help me support him. To all his fans, please help me support him. Don’t let him go to jail,” she said.

“I’m his elder sister. We’re orphans, and we have no one. Please forgive him. I beg on his behalf.”
