Rumours about Badmus’s arrest started speculating in the early hours of Saturday. Several blogs claimed that the actress called Ifeanyi’s nanny on phone to distract her from noticing the boy had left the room for the swimming pool.
However, police spokesperson Benjamin Hundeyin told BBC Pidgin that Badmus was not arrested.
“The story is false, nothing like that happened,” Hundeyin said.
Badmus was one of the first celebrities that announced the death of Ifeanyi in a cryptic message.
Moments after her post, Nigerians stormed the comment section, accusing her of using the boy’s death as a means of gaining more popularity. Others opined that it was insensitive to announce the death of a child before confirmation from the parents.
With things spiralling out of control, Badmus was forced to delete the post on Instagram and Facebook.
