Breaking: Duncan Mighty Arrested For Fraud In Imo State
1 min readDuncan Mighty, the popular singer has been arrested for fraud in the early hours of today by authorities as against the rumoured news of him being abducted by gunmen.
In a statement by the PRO of Imo state, Duncan Mighty reneged on an agreement he made with the Imo state government.
The arrest follows a petition written by an upcoming rap artist M2, who claimed that the Imo state Government led by Owelle Rochas Okorocha, through the office of the SA on Entertainment, enter into a deal with Duncan Mighty to manage, promote, arrange collaboration with other top artist and sign M2 under Young Wealth record label owned by Duncan Mighty.
This agreement was sealed with a fee of ELEVEN MILLION NAIRA (N11,000,000) which was paid to him, however, since collecting the payment he refused to fulfill his own part of the deal.
Before today, the artist was arrested, and he confirmed going into an agreement but said he can only refund the money if the contract is terminated. Based on this promise, he was released.
This led to a termination of the contract by the representative of the former Governor, to ensure he refunds the money, however, since then, Duncan Mighty could not be reached. According to the statement, “he absconded.”
In view of the above, a warrant of arrest was issued, that led to his arrest at the early hours of this morning.
According to this statement, there was no abduction, rather, an arrest.
