[dropcap]Ọ[/dropcap]lawale Ọlọfọrọ, better known as Brymo, has asked Peter Okoye of PSQUARE, a.k.a Mr. P, to drop the hypocrisy of appealing to the police to be lenient with Seun Kuti over his recent debacle with the police.

Recall that the Afrobeat singer has been declared wanted by the Inspector General of Police after a video of him assaulting a police officer surfaced on social media.
Many Nigerians have advocated on his behalf as it was claimed that he was only trying to protect his family. One of them was Mr. P, who took to his Twitter handle to appeal for leniency on the part of the police in treating the matter.
“Quite an unfortunate incident and from reports, it seems Seun’s family was in danger hence the altercation.
“When you understand what happens when a man is put in a situation to protect his family from any form of danger, our emotions get the better of us.
“I ask and plead that the #NigerianPoliceForce accept our unreserved apologies for the unfortunate outburst and tamper justice with mercy.
“#Family🙏🏽❤️ #LoveLeads,” he wrote.
While Peter was applauded by some Nigerians, majority were not too pleased with his message. One of them was the Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin.
“Whenever you feel an unarmed lone police officer put your family in danger (God forbids it), go ahead and slap the officer. Do it in Nigeria and the USA where you visit often.
“I’m certain eminent Nigerians will bring up this argument of yours in your defence,” SP Hundeyin wrote.
On his own, Brymo accused the hiphop singer of feigning support in order to insult Kuti in future. Recall that there was a bitter faceoff Afrobeat singer and Mr. P before the general elections early this year.
“Bros leave am make him deal with him matter .. make una no reduce man to begger because of matters wey go dey resolved anyways .. why we dey beg ??.. please do not show any faux empathy for Seun Kuti , you don’t care .. he’ll be fine!!. Later “we help am beg police”.. drop it!” he wrote.
