Viral Video : Singer BNXN Recants, Denies Spitting In Policeman’s Face

Making a U-turn on Thursday, the singer said the phrase was used in it idiomatic sense not literally.


He tweeted, "My since deleted tweet stating that I spat in a police officers face was an idiomatic expression to say I disrespected a police officer to his face and not the literal way people may have taken it on social media. I do not support violence or abuse against the police in any form.


“Yesterday, I was in a life threatening situation which caused me to lash out due to the physical assault on me by some policemen who have now been brought to book. I stood on my right as a responsible Nigerian, despite the violence against my person and I do not want my deleted tweet to be taken seriously.”
