Nigerian music star, Duncan Mighty has been arrested by the police for allegedly defrauding fellow artiste, M2 to the tune of N11million.
Duncan who was arrested on Saturday, December 14th, 2019 by the Imo State Police Command was before now reported to have been kidnapped by unknown gun men.
His billionaire friend and club owner, Cubana Chief Priest had on Saturday revealed via the Instagram that; “He (Duncan Mighty) was beaten and abducted by the gunmen amid gunshots.”
Be that as it may, Imo State Police Public Relations Officer, Orlando Ikeokwu, said; “Duncan Mighty was arrested following a petition written by an upcoming artiste, M2.”
“This followed a petition written by an upcoming (sic) rap artiste M2, who claimed that the Imo State Government, led by Owelle Rochas Okorocha, through the office of the Special Adviser on Entertainment, entered into a deal with Duncan Mighty to manage, promote, arrange collaboration with other top artistes and signed M2 under Young Wealth record label owned by Duncan Mighty.”
“As a result, an agreement was reached with a fee of N11m paid to him. However, since collecting the payment, he refused to fulfill his own part of the deal.”
“Sequel to the petition, the artiste was arrested, and he affirmed having such agreement and collecting the fund but said he could only refund the money if the contract was terminated. He was then released on bail on self-recognition.”
“Consequently, a letter was received by the representative of the former governor, terminating the contract to enable him to refund the money. Since then, he absconded. And all efforts made to reach him proved abortive.”
“In view of the above, a warrant of arrest was issued that led to his arrest in the early hours of this (Saturday) morning.”
