His arrest is a result of the allegation the singer made against Soso Soberekon last week.
Harrysong had alleged that Soso Soberekon made an attempt on his life some time ago. He stated it during an interview on the Frankly Speaking podcast partly hosted by comedian, Nedu.
According to him, most people seen as his friends are “real enemies” looking for his downfall.
Speaking on his relationship with Soso Soberekon, he said, “As a matter of fact, those are my real enemies. If you see Soso now, you’ll say Soso is my friend. Soso is not my friend, Soso is my enemy. He sent people to come and kill me in Port Harcourt, no jokes. Ask my team, ask everyone.”
Soso Soberekon threatened him with a lawsuit if he doesn’t apologise and retracted his statement.
