“Freedom is priceless,” he tweeted.

Ice Prince was arrested for allegedly assaulting a police officer earlier in September.

According to a statement released by the spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, the music star abducted and threatened to throw an officer into the river after he was stopped for driving without a license.

“At 3 am today, @Iceprincezamani was stopped for driving without license plates. He agreed to be taken to the station. He, thereafter, abducted the police officer in his car, assaulted him and threatened to throw him in the river. He has been arrested and would be arraigned today,” he tweeted.

The music star was later arraigned and remanded at the Ikoyi Prison till his bail conditions are met.

He was later released after he met his bail conditions.
