Father of late Daniel Ayama Cruiz Vibes demands justice for late entertainer
The father of a 27-year-old Daniel Ayama, also known as Cruzie Vibes, whose life was tragically cut short under mysterious circumstances in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, has broken his silence, calling for justice.
The incident, which occurred in the early hours of Friday May 16, 2025, has left Yenagoa residents in shock and mourning. It was gathered that Cruzie was a student of Federal University Otuoke and a popular artiste in Yenagoa,
In an emotional interview, Mr. Ayama described his son as a “promising young man with dreams and aspirations,” lamenting the pain of losing him so suddenly. “His life was cut short, and we deserve to know why,” he said, urging authorities to investigate the incident and bring those responsible to book.
He expressed deep dissatisfaction with the initial handling of the case by local authorities and urged the police to leave no stone unturned in uncovering the truth behind their son’s death. “We need justice for our son,” Mr. Ayama stated.
According to the Bayelsa State Police Command, Daniel Ayama and three others, Peremoboi Anthony (27), Betty Captain Vivian, and Emmanuel Ebanipere (28), were returning from a birthday party when unknown assailants ambushed them in an unmarked Hilux vehicle at INEC Junction in Yenagoa. Ayama was shot dead, while the others sustained injuries and were taken to the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) in Yenagoa for treatment.
The police spokesman, DSP Musa Mohammed, said in a statement that the Command had commenced an investigation into the incident, which they suspected was linked to intra-cult rivalry. According to him, a black Toyota Lexus SUV riddled with bullet holes was recovered by the Anti-Kidnapping Unit in the Swali area of Yenagoa.
“The Command is actively working with public spirited individuals who have already provided valuable information to assist in identifying and apprehending the perpetrators of this violent act. The Bayelsa State Police Command assures the public that thorough investigations are ongoing and further updates will be communicated as they unfold,” he assured.

Breaking: Court of Appeal rules in favour of Turaki -led PDP candidate for Osun governorship election
The Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, on Thursday, ruled that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Gubernatorial Candidate in Osun State was validly nominated by the Tanimu Turaki-led National Working Committee.
The court also ordered INEC to list the PDP logo on the ballot ahead of Saturday’s gubernatorial election.
The Court held that access code is neither a creation of the Constitution nor the Electoral Act; rather, a creation of INEC’s guidelines and cannot, in any way, override the provisions of the Constitution.
Section 288 of the Constitution does not specify the method for nominating candidates; it only states that the names of candidates should be forwarded to the Commission.
The court further held that the defendant (INEC) should take steps to include the name of the appellant on the ballot paper.
Additionally, the court ruled that the primary election conducted by the Tanimu Turaki-led National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP was a valid primary election in law.
The three-man panel of justices—Justice Mahmud, Justice Jaro, and Justice Ankawere, was unanimous in its judgment.
