The rumour began after rapper Godwon shared surveillance
video released by Police in Houston of a man stealing $300 from an ATM machine
in a department store in Houston. Social media users, blogs and
Godwon alleged the man was Sauce Kid now called Sinzu.
According to Houston police, the suspect is described only
as a black male, 20 to 30 years old, 5 feet 7 to 6 feet 2 inches tall and 150
to 190 pounds. He had a mustache and beard, and long dreadlocks.
Since the news and this surveillance video went viral, Sunzu
whose real name is Babalola Falemi has been compared with the man in the video
as his physical characteristics had looked like this especially in a recent
video shoot he had in Houston.
His friend turned foe Godwon has also been merciless on
social media, driving the fire of allegation.
Sinzu himself has further fuelled the allegations by
deleting his instangram page where tons of pictures of him wearing his dreads
and beard had been posted, especially pictures of his shoot in Houston.
But the singer has insisted he is not the man in the video.
“Man that aint me” he tells a blogger friend Tosin Adeda on
BBM.
Houston police say they are still hunting for the man who
had used a woman’s account information to withdraw the money and have asked
anyone with useful information to call crime stoppers.
