Award winning Nigerian musician, Innocent Idibia, popularly called TUFACE has described as mere untrue, the reports that claiming he was arrested and detained by the Directorate of State Services over his earlier planned protests in Lagos and Abuja.
In his tweet on Monday Tuface expressed gratitude to those who showed concern over the purported arrest.
He said, “Thanks for the concern, guys. I am fine and free.
“Reports about DSS arrest are not true. We are still compiling responses for the leadership.
“State your opinion on the social media with the #IStandWithNigeria. Peace! One luv always!!!”
The protest which was initiated by the hip-hop artist for Monday was cancelled on Sunday.
The cancellation did not stop other groups from carrying on with the protest, but it attracted a lean turnout both at the National Stadium in Lagos and Unity Fountain, Abuja.
The popular musician cancelled the protest on Sunday citing “security concerns and public safety consideration’’.
