Media personality Dr Fab has raised alarm over the alleged arrest and prolonged detention of Nigerian music producer Samklef.
In a series of posts shared on X on Friday, September 25, 2026, Dr Fab claimed that he had confirmed that Samklef was arrested sometime ago and suggested that the producer may have spent months in detention.
According to him, details about who was behind the alleged arrest were being withheld, while he said he was making efforts to gather more information.
“Wow. 😮 I just confirmed directly that Samklef was arrested, sometime ago.. hence the reason for his silence. They are holding back who is behind this. I’m getting more informations. He must come out !!! #FreeSamklef #SayNoToOppresion”
In another post, Dr Fab questioned how long Samklef had allegedly been detained and appealed to members of the public to support efforts to secure his release.
“Please guys let’s help Samklef. This is not nice. How many months inside and everyone’s keeping quiet. 😡 😡 😡. It will not be well with whoever is behind this.”
He later promised to do everything within his power to help the producer regain his freedom.
“I’m going to do all I can to make sure he’s free. I promise you Samklef, you’re going to be a free man! There’s no room for injustice in this world. Make una no worry.”
As of the time of filing this report, the circumstances surrounding the alleged arrest and detention, including the identity of whoever may have caused it, had not been independently established.
