Olumide Adeyinka-Fusika (SAN), counsel for embattled afrobeat star, Seun Kuti has said that he is unaware the police seized his
client's gun licence.
A source who informed Punch about the seized gun licence had said;
“The officers that searched Seun Kuti’s home on Tuesday only found a gun licence, and they seized it. I can confirm that the command is currently working on revoking the licence.”
However, Olumide stated that there is no link between his client's case of assaulting a policeman and a gun licence.
He said;
“Regrettably, I’m not aware of this. However, a licence is not a gun. A gun license is a mere piece of paper authorising the bearer or licence to own and have possession of a specified piece of arm (gun).
“Besides, what’s the connection between the allegation of slapping a policeman and police seizure of his gun licence?”
