The entertainer regained his freedom on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, after spending nearly two weeks in custody.
In a video posted on social media, DJ Chicken expressed gratitude to the Nigerian government, President Bola Tinubu and Seyi Tinubu, describing his release as a blessing.
He also shared a photo of Seyi Tinubu on his Instagram Story with the caption “Hmm ddddy” and changed his Instagram display picture to Seyi’s photograph.
DJ Chicken was arraigned on a three-count charge bordering on alleged violations of the Cybercrimes Act, breach of peace and making alleged threats against Seyi Tinubu.
The charges followed a viral video in which he allegedly made comments about the 2027 presidential election and was accused of threatening the President’s son.
He later apologised, saying the remarks were intended as a joke to attract attention and boost his social media presence. Despite the apology, he was arrested and prosecuted before regaining his freedom.
