Popular rapper, Alhaji Amadu Bah popularly known has Boss LA has today released his first statement from Pa Demba Road Prison debunking robbery allegations.
The rapper was arrested on 12 June on robbery allegations.
His arrest sparked various reactions on social media with Sierra Leoneans accusing the police of violating his human rights.
Check out his full statement from prison below:
My fellow Sierra Leoneans,
Following my arrest and detention on 12th June 2022, I have been very pleased with the wide condemnation by numerous sections against the police for abuses directed against my human rights.
I wish to thank all Sierra Leoneans, civil society and human rights activists who have spoken out openly against the unjust and unfair way my Human Rights have been violated.
I want to assure the public that all the allegations against me including charges of robbery with violence are false. My lawyers are actively working on this, and I pray that I get a fair trial and a chance to prove my innocence.
I am desperate to see this matter conclude because I know I am innocent. My next court date is 28th June 2022.
I want to assure all Sierra Leoneans that I am a peace-loving Sierra Leonean and despite all the pains I am enduring, I request all my fans to remain calm and respect the peace.
I also thank my family and my legal team for standing strongly by me both in and out of court and for ensuring that I defend myself against these wild allegations. The truth will surely last.

LAJ is a real disgrace to this country. I say so because confusion is always with him. In USA he was full of confusion which led to his deportation. In Sierra Leone again, the same confusion. Why can’t he be moderate as other musicians like K-Man, Emerson, Mega Don, etc? In my view he has a serious curse on him and that will ever remain to be with him if he does not ask for forgiveness. Aayy bo, ar fed up bot this fiasco! Why can’t you protect the good name of your ethnic group? So so sonkoh sonkoh bien you. A big disgrace and shame to humanity.
