Actress Caroline Danjum has spoken out concerning the death of her lover, Tagbo Umeike, who was a friend to Davido.
Danjuma had accused the singer of being complicit in the circumstances that led to the death of Umeike in the wee hours of Tuesday, October 3, the deceased’s birthday.
In a new interview with SDK, Danjuma noted that she never accused Davido of killing Tagbo.
According to her: “Firstly I would like to address this whole razzmatazz about David killing Tagbo and that I said so, I never said so. But yes, I did call out Davido to know the whereabouts of Tagbo but I never said he killed him. I never used that word ”Killed Tagbo’,” she said.
“I was out at the Bank when Tagbo’s childhood friend (Kola) called me and said that he wanted to talk about tagbo,he was just asking random questions.
I told him I would call him back. I am aware that Tagbo was trying to do his Schengen visa so I called the guy helping him out to ask if she had heard from him but she said Tagbo was supposed to deliver some documents but had not.
I got home and called Kola back around 4PM and this was when Kola revealed to me that Tagbo was dead. I thought it was a joke because Tagbo does not drive carelessly, he doesn’t fight, he is not one to be seen in a place where people are fighting. If he is angry, he walks away.
I was confused,” she said.
Caroline stated that prior to finding out about Tagbo’s death, someone had told her that he was with Davido at Shisha (Room) on Monday and then she asked him randomly ‘oh then you must know Tagbo?’
“I called the same guy when I heard tagbo had died and asked him to find out what happened and he said he was trying to but every time he called Davido’s team and mentioned Tagbo’s name they would drop the phone on him and this was what they had also done to anyone who calls and mentions his name.
“I contacted someone who remembers seeing davido and tagbo and DNA and remembers there was a fight. This person also told me there was a bet and said the same thing my neighbour said but said 30 shots and not 50”.
According to reports, Tagbo drank the tequila, got drunk and wanted to drive his car but Davido refused and told Tagbo to drive with him. That was what I heard and that they drove to G12 beach and got out leaving Tagbo in the car all locked up and that one of the crew members came back saw Tagbo gasping for air. This was the information from a supposed eye witness.Tagbo was taken to general hospital where he was confirmed dead and they left him there.
Debunking claims that the deceased was the father to her 3-year old daughter, Caroline said: “I have woken up to see all sorts of allegations and it is really laughable because the whole idea is to divert the attention form the questions i am asking about what happened to Tagbo. I will address this once and for all. Number one, I met Tagbo when I was legally divorced and out of my ex’s house to start a new life. Yes we were dating”.
