The Kano State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of two prime suspects linked to the attack on singer, Lil Kesh
The suspects, identified as Mathew Adewole and Mukhtar Muhammad, allegedly attempted to murder the singer in August by inflicting deep cuts on his neck during an attack at his Lagos home.
Days after the incident, Lil Kesh reassured fans in a post on X, writing, “Life threw me a curveball, but I’m safe, healing, and blessed to be here. I’m grateful for the love, support, and prayers.”
The attack happened just weeks before the abduction of popular TikToker Habeeb Hamzat, known as Peller, who was later released.
In a post shared on Saturday, the Kano State Police Command announced that the suspects were arrested in Na’ibawa Quarters, Kano, and that N2.12 million was recovered from them.
“Kano State Police Command nabs two suspects in Na’ibawa Quarters, Kano, Mathew Adewole and Mukhtar Muhammad, in connection with armed robbery and attempted murder of Lil-Kesh at Bera Estate, Chevron, Lagos. Stolen N2.12m recovered and suspects handed over to Lagos Police for prosecution, #Justice Served,” the statement read.
