She was accompanied by Seun and Daniel during the odd hours of the night. My wife and I have been arrested in the past by SWAT in the state for stealing. But after that, I left her in Akure and went to Ado-Ekiti. This time around, I decided to come and check on the twins she had for me; that was how I was arrested with her.”
