Buju BNXN backtracks after admitting to spitting in policeman's face

Meanwhile, singer Buju Benson took to his Twitter page to address the ugly incident involving him and some police officers.

The music star who had earlier declared that he spat on the face of a police officer insisted that it was just an idiomatic expression to mean that he disrespected them.

He noted that was not the literal meaning of what he said, and the social media community might have misunderstood him as he declared that he will never support any abuse or violence against the police.
