‘Socialite Koko Zaria’s boy broke my head with a bottle’ Actor Baba Lawori cries out (Video)
Yoruba Nollywood actor, Ibrahim Bello Sanya better known as Baba Lawori has cried out to Nigerians for help over a brutal attack from one of the aides of Lagos socialite and NURTW chief, Alhaji Ganiu Ayinde Oyedepo, better known as Koko Zaria.
In a post on his Instagram page, he recounted how he was performing as a Master of Ceremony at an event at Idumu Day, when a stranger approached him, claiming that Koko Zaria wanted to see him.
He said he handed over the microphone to someone to continue and he went to meet Koko Zaria.
Lawori said Koko Zaria queried him why he did not acknowledge his presence and he immediately apologised and told him that once he returned to the stage, he would make corrections.
He said as he was still talking with Koko Zaria, he heard someone ask if he was Baba Lawori and he turned to answer in the affirmative.
He said the man grabbed hold of a bottle on Koko Zaria’s table and smashed it on his head, knocking him unconscious.
He said he was covered in his own blood and he was rushed to the hospital where they had to stitch his open scalp.
He said he derived his income from doing MC at events, but now he was afraid of going out because of the horrible experience and he was still in pain.
Baba Lawori called on Nigerians to come for his assistance and get justice for him.
In a post on his Instagram page, he wrote:
“The night, I was carrying out my duties as a Master of Ceremony at an event IDIMU DAY when a sudden and brutal attack changed everything. A stranger approached me, claiming KOKOZARIA wanted to see me. Trusting this individual, I dropped the microphone to meet with KOKOZARIA. Little did I know, this was a setup.
As I tried to return to the stage, one of KOKOZARIA’s associates mentioned my name, and in an instant, a bottle was smashed over my head. I was covered in my own blood, losing consciousness in the presence of KOKOZARIA.
The next thing I knew, I was being carried home, and in pain after my head got stitched. I am still trying to make sense of this unprovoked attack. I have done nothing to wrong these individuals, and I am left wondering why they would attack me in such a vicious manner.
I am reaching out to my fellow Nigerians for help and support. I need assistance in seeking justice and ensuring my safety. No one deserves to be attacked in such a brutal manner, and I hope that together, we can find the perpetrators and bring them to justice”.
