Mr 2Kay Robbed And Beaten Up In His Hotel Room After Show Performance At Eko Hotel And Suites
Singer, Abiye David Jumbo popularly known
as Mr. 2Kay was robbed at gun point in his
hotel room at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria
Island, Lagos. The incident happened at
about 11pm on Sunday, October 22, 2017,
during the Buckwyld and Breathless concert
where he also performed.
The robbers, 4 in number, gained access
into Mr. 2Kay’s room after he mistook one
of them for room service. They forced their
way into his room and waved a gun with
threats to shoot him if he made a noise.
Mr. 2Kay, who was in the room with a
friend, struggled with one of the robbers, as
the others punched and hit him with a gun,
repeatedly warning that they will shoot if
he doesn’t calm down. One of the robbers
led and locked 2Kay’s friend in the
bathroom, while the others tied the singer’s
arms, legs and mouth and took his
valuables including jewelry, clothes,
perfumes, phones, and money. They also cut
the room’s intercom (phone) to avoid any
form of communication as they left the
hotel.
The hotel authorities and police have taken
statements for investigation, while Mr. 2Kay
is getting medical attention for his wounds.
“I was quite shocked when I got to Mr.
2Kay’s room last night. This was somebody I
watched perform some minutes before the
incident. Anyway, the hotel authorities and
police are already investigating the incident
and we hope they’ll apprehend the
criminals as soon as possible,” said James
Silas, Manager of Grafton Records.
