Earlier on, NAIJ.com reported the news of how a fast rising Nigerian singer, Ali Zainab Nielsen popularly known by her stage name, Alizee was killed together with her 4-year-old daughter by
her Danish husband, Peter Nielsen.

Reports show that they were reportedly murdered at the family’s residence at Ocean Parade, Banana Island, Lagos state.

Confirming the news, the Lagos state PPRO, SP Chike Oti, stated that investigation has since commenced as a crime scene investigative team had been deployed in the house.


He said, “The state Commissioner of Police, Edgal Imohimi, has ordered the arrest of the suspect and he is in police custody. It is pre-emptive now to ascertain the cause of the incident. The CP has dispatched crime scene investigators to the place to pick evidences for analysis which can be used for prosecution.

The command has also written the Embassy of the suspect that the police are investigating the case.”

Prior to her death, the fast rising singer was looking forward to performing at Harrysong’s music concert coming up on the 29th of April at the Warri Stadium.

Meanwhile, Alizee's management team recently release their official statement on the murder and it reads thus:

" 1. Petra Entertainment Limited has received with shock news of the sudden demise of our artist Nielsen Zainab Joy (Aged 29) and her daughter Nielsen Petra (Aged 4) at their Banana Island, Lagos home on the 5th of April 2018.

2. The late Nielsen Zainab Joy (also known as Alizee) was a Nigerian citizen married to Nielsen Peter Schau a Danish citizen resident in Nigeria.

3. While we exercise restraint in making public comments on the circumstances surrounding the demise of Alizee and her daughter, – in order not to prejudices on-going police investigations – it has become important to correct some misinformation presently circulating in the media space.

4. In this regard, we state that the husband of the late Nielsen Zainab Joy who is also the father of the late Nielsen Petra is Nielsen Peter Schau. Nielsen Peter Schau is a Danish citizen and not an Italian or Asian as has been reported by several media outlets.

5. We call all law enforcement agencies to speedily unravel the circumstances surrounding the demise of these vibrant Nigerians and bring all complicit persons and/or entities to justice.

6. In the light of reports suggesting that Alizee’s husband may be under Police investigation in connection with these painful deaths, We particularly call on the Nigerian immigration Services to remain vigilant at this time and urge the cooperation of all foreign missions in the country.

7. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the relatives of the late Zainab and Petra.

Signed

Management"
