The command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, made this known via a tweet on his verified Twitter handle on Friday morning.

Hundeyin stated that Ice Prince was arrested at about 3 a.m. on Friday after the famous singer was flagged down by the police for driving without a license plate.

He added that Ice Prince, who agreed to be taken to the station after he was stopped by the police, abducted a police officer in his car, assaulted him, and threatened to throw him in the river.
