Mr 2kay attacked by gunmen at Eko Hotel and Suites
Popular Nigerian Singer, Abinye David Jumbo, AKA Mr 2Kay, was yesterday robbed at gun point in his hotel room at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Mr 2kay was attacked alongside a friend by four gunmen during the Buckwyld and Breathless concert where he had performed.
Confirming the incident, his Manager, James Silas, of Grafton Record took to Instagram, saying the incident happened at about 11pm on Sunday, October 22, 2017, during the Buckwyld and Breathless concert where he also performed.
He said ‘’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 night.‘’
