Why Clarence Peter Was Dragged Online
After the news of Kodak's death broke out online, an Instagram blogger (gistlovers) wrote a blog post dragging Clarence Peter and his family name online, according to the post, the blogger said:
" Kodak death needs investigation!!! I don't understand why this country doesn't have forensic, Without even getting to the root of her death, Kodak died early hours of this morning in Clarence Peters house, She was a video vixen, Clarence Peters the son of shina Peters and clarion chukwurah, the video Director, He claimed the lady was charging phone when electric shocked her and that he rushed the girl to the hospital and she died immediately.deep sigh!!! I know a girl who dated him in the past, He was so abusive, Last year, a girl also reported that she was raped by Clarence, I implore the right authority to do more investigation before burying the poor girl, a lot of unanswered questions, Why was she at Clarence House during the lockdown? Was there any physical bruises on her? was she raped? Those questions are left unanswered, WHAT A LAWLESS COUNTRY, Not accusing anyone here but I just felt if the Authority could dig more, they may find something interesting".
The post immediately went viral and the blog followers started commenting negatively on the Character of Clarence Peter. To make matters worst, Lagos State Police Command, through it Spokesperson Bala Elkana confirmed to Premium times that they are keeping the ace music video director in detention pending investigation of the death case, he said
"My response has been clear. Do we have him in custody, I say we do. Why do you have him in custody? We are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of the dancer.
"We are also waiting for the autopsy result. Investigation is a natural cause. It is important for him and it is also good for any other person who was there. If nobody has a hand in it, the report will clear everybody. If the result says it is a murder case, the law will take its cause. That is exactly why we have him, that is exactly what we are doing".
Jennifer Alegieuno Clarence Peter's Girlfriend for 14 years took to her Instagram to defend him, giving an insight into the true situations of things, she said:
"It is SICKENING the corruption and laxity in the NIGERIAN POLICE FORCE!
But First, lemme start with you the ones who follow blogs and comment without thinking. That someone earns a living from breaking homes and destroying people’s reputation is something that should naturally be worrisome to you but NO, it refreshes you. So, as Clarence’s 14yrs long girlfriend, Lemme state AUTHORITATIVELY that CLARENCE PETERS was invited to police command, YABA and he went there willingly. He was NOT arrested, neither was he CHARGED WITH MURDER as stated by the press statement from the police command through their spokesperson BALA ELKANA!
Just because we chose to keep quiet until the autopsy result comes out before addressing the press and of course the police report to exonerate him was signed and collected.
On Saturday 3rd of May, 2020 an investigative team led by IPO, MR. POPOOLA, after the on-scene investigation was done, the body visited at the morgue, came to a conclusion they had no case with CLARENCE PETERS(who was not on the scene of incident) SEGUN the business manager, the 4dancers and two other members of staff of CAPITAL DREAMS PICTURES, (all referred to as witnesses), that it was a NATURAL ACCIDENT. He wrote his report to that effect. Events took a different turn when The DCP- YETUNDE LONGE, came in and asked that the report be torn, he wrote a second one that she tore again. By the third report, then came in MR. OYE and his father Sir Shina Peters and she couldn’t continue with her foul play. She agreed they had NO CASE with him and the rest of the witnesses. “So why are u still holding him..” everyone asked, she said she was waiting for the autopsy result so she can attach it. When she saw she had been caught, she sent them to put out a press statement that he was charged for murder. So thinking Nigerians, can someone be “CHARGED” without an autopsy conducted?
Backtrack a bit, after LD passed on, it took more than 24hrs to seek the consent from her family to conduct that autopsy. By the time the consent was gotten, due to the COVID-19 caused NIGERIAN COURTS CLOSURE, the autopsy was to start on monday being tomorrow. So again, how are we talking "he's being charged for MURDER"???
Since they decided to throw the first blow of negativity, lets go ALL OUT with the information. You have all been waiting for a response from him and because he chose to be law-abiding, someone who contributes positively to the Nigerian economy, they want yo tarnish his name? And artistes, everyone is quiet? Nobody is asking questions other than "how can she be electrocuted"??? Is it right? Who is going to charge PHCN to court for the SURGE? Yetunde Alonge said if he was an ordinary person she would have let him go but because he and his parents are celebrities that is why. Since u all seek to know of clarence
"murdered" her, if clarence "raped" her, why can't you all the march to PANTI and ask your police force questions. Don't sit on blogs spilling fallacies and stamp your imprint by commenting ignorantly. We were going to wait for the results and her family but clearly, everyone is keeping quiet and dragging him in the mud. I WON'T! I have NEVER kept quiet in the face of ILLS, i won't start now. And to CP, Biodun stay strong cos THIS
TOO SHALL PASS!! MALWAYS and FOREVER!".
She accused gistlovers blog of dragging Clarence Peter's name online and warned that the blog will take responsibility for its actions. She also said:
"EVERY BLOG who has gone out of their way to tell a lie- in the slide is the article posted by GLB, she took it down almost immediately before posting the witness’ account, how do we go from electrocution to RAPE? I don’t have an issue with an investigation as it NATURALLY, under NORMAL circumstances should be conducted anywhere in the world, BUT categorically alleging you know people he raped and abused is NOT sth to joke about. This is how people mIslead the ALREADY IGNORANT PUBLIC. Giving people a reason to form NEGATIVE opinions and i see people who i thought had sense making SNIDE remarks? You want to know how we landed here, it was all your commenting. So kudos to the blogs and YOU ESPECIALLY, the ignorant Lot.
An educative or informative post be put up, you wont see comments. When Dangote truck killed three of my aunts at once, there was no uproar. Then a NATURAL ACCIDENT will occur, u say it was MURDER!
May God forgive US ALL!
May His divine assistance remain always with us and may the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace, AMEN!".
How Kodak Died
Clarence Peter finally made a statement and gave an account of how Kodak died, in the statement, the music video director said:
"On the 29th of April 2020, Love Divine Ike (Picture Kodak) was in the dance studio, on the premises of Capital Dreams Pictures, with 5 other team members and myself - 7 people in total.
At about 7:30 pm on the same day, while in another office - a building beside the dance studio, on the same premises, some people who were said to be with Love Divine at the time, rushed in and called my attention to the fact that Love Divine had collapsed.
We immediately rushed her to the nearest hospital, which refused to let us into their premises, let alone admit her. They assumed she was a Covid-19 patient.
We tried, but we were not able to gain entry into a second hospital. We eventually got her to a third hospital where she was pronounced dead 30 minutes after arrival.
I was not physically in the same room as her when the incident occurred, and when I inquired, I was told by those present at the scene that Love Divine, while taking a break from the dance session, was sitting on one of the metal sliding door rails, charging and using her phone plugged to an extension box.
The witnesses didn’t realize anything was wrong, until they saw she had laid down, and they noticed smoke coming from her chest area.
She was said to be electrocuted, her phone was found on her chest, with severe burn marks, and the phone’s imprint on her chest.
The witnesses were taken to the Ojodu Police Headquarters straight from the hospital where statements were taken and the phone (which had traces of burnt flesh on it) was deposited.
The following day, the Police conducted an examination of the body and were taken to the scene of the incident for further examination.
The Police are currently carrying out a full-scale investigation into the events that occurred, and an autopsy will be carried out, with the full permission and consent of her family.
Please note that no one has been charged or arrested, by the Police. The witnesses and I willingly made ourselves available to the Police and we have all pledged our full co-operation, through every part of this process. I will be helping out in every possible capacity"
He added "Love Divine and the entire WestLifeCrew was a huge part of Capital Dreams Pictures, and losing her hurts us all deeply.
She was an exemplary person, and a legend in her own rights. We will miss her very much.
Words will never be enough to describe what her family is going through in these things trying times. My thoughts and prayers are with them, and I ask God to grant them all the strength & fortitude at this time.
This is a truly difficult time for us all, and we’re asking for a lot of patience and goodwill from the general public, in these difficult times.
May God help us through this".
