Tayo said the attack on him stemmed from xenophobia, while calling for justice before he was arrested.

Reacting to the arrest of the reality star, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, tweeted:

“Still on the incident involving ex BBN star, Tayo. He is out Police net. Our mission in Joburg took it up with the authorities. They claimed he was rude and shouted at them immediately he was stopped. No matter, the Police behaviour was wrong. We are trying to reach Tayo.”
