Omah Lay has stated that the Ugandan government has refused to allow the Nigerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to intervene so both he and Tems will be released from the custody of the Ugandan Police in a series of tweets.
Omah Lay was arrested alongside Tems after performing at an event in Uganda. Omah Lay has said that he was not part of the organization of the show and his performance was in the spur of the moment after he was recognized by fans.
“Why am I being detained? Why am I not been given a right to a fair hearing? I didn’t organize the show, I came on stage and saw teeming fans and sang to them,” he tweeted.
He also wrote, “Why is Uganda not letting @NigeriaMFA step into this? They have been trying to secure our release to no avail. They are treating me like I killed someone.”
“Is there something bigger at play in Uganda? Why do I have to take the fall for it???”
Asides from an earlier tweet that confirmed that he was still in detention of the Ugandan Police with Tems, Omah Lay has failed to mention the situation of Tems but recent pictures showed them in a Ugandan court.
