Kehinde Adegbodu, the twin brother of late Nigerian singer Taiwo Adegbodu, has cried out following an attack from armed robbers.
In a video making the rounds online, he claimed he wasn’t around when the incident happened, but his brother’s wife and children were.
He disclosed that the robbers carted away with cash and valuables, with the intention of collecting the donations made during his brother’s burial. According to him, he said his sister-in-law called him, telling him the robbers were asking about him, Taiwo’s room, their jewellery, Taiwo’s phone, car key and others.
Kehinde revealed that the robbers thought the money Yinka Ayefele raised for them was still with him and spent 45 minutes invading their house.
“I was in Osogbo three days ago when Taiwo’s wife called me, and her voice was shaking. She said armed robbers came to the house and were saying, ‘Where is Kehinde? Where is the room of Taiwo that d!ed? Where is their jewellery? Where is Taiwo’s phone? Where is the car key? We are here because of Kehinde. We want to see him. Where is his room? The robbers took all my clothes, valuables and cash. One of the robbers called their boss on the phone, saying that I wasn’t around
I think the robbers thought that the money Yinka Ayefele raised for us was still with me. These robbers don’t even care that we are mourning. They spent over 45 minutes at our house. The money raised for us was used to develop our building project so we could bury Taiwo there. I will post my account balance so that these robbers will know there is no money there. Please don’t come and h@rm our children. I am always on the road. I don’t have money, and I don’t live a fake life. Even the car we are using was a gift. Since the incident, our kids have been living in fear; they are scared to sleep in the house”.
