Contrary to social media reports that Duncan Mighty was beaten and arrested, fresh development have surfaced.
TheNewsGuru gathered that Duncan Mighty was arrested by men of the Imo State Police command on allegations of fraud
According to an official statement issued by the command’s public relations officer, SP Ikeokwu Orlando, the Afro-pop singer was arrested as a result of fraud allegations.
This followed 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 Special Adviser on Entertainment, entered into a deal with Duncan Mighty to manage, promote, arrange collaboration with other top artiste and sign M2 under Young Wealth Records However, since he got paid 11 million naira, he refused to fulfil his own part of the deal.
Sequel to the petition, the artiste was arrested and he affirmed that he can only refund the money if the contract is terminated.
Consequently, a letter was issued by the representative of the former Governor, terminating the contract to enable him refund the money, and 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 at the early hours of this morning.
