Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command says it has arrested Emmanuel Odiniya, the father of Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) winner Ilebaye Odiniya, over an alleged assault incident. According to reports, the case follows a distress call made by Ilebaye around midnight. Premium Times reports she appeared emotional and distressed during an Instagram Live session at about that time, before seeking help. Vanguard and The Punch both state that the police have detained or arrested Odiniya and are treating the matter as an assault allegation tied to the incident involving his daughter. The sources report the police have confirmed the arrest/detention, but do not provide further details about the circumstances of the alleged assault, the extent of any injuries, or the current legal status beyond the arrest. The reports present consistent accounts that the police action is linked to a midnight call for help and that Odiniya is the person taken into custody based on the allegation.
