Duncan Mighty’s arrest was earlier announced as a kidnap by night club owner, Chibuike Okechukwu widely known as Cubana Chief priest. However, the police owned up to arresting the singer for fraud after reneging on an agreement he made with the Imo state government.

The Imo State police released a statement on the arrest saying the singer was re-arrested after he failed to honour the agreement after he was released in October 2019 over the petition by a rap artist, M2.

This is why Duncan Mighty was arrested – Police

The Imo State police command has shed more light on the circumstances surrounding the early morning arrest of Singer Duncan Mighty.

According to the State’s police P.R.O, the singer was arrested for fraud after reneging 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 N11 million which was paid to him, however, since collecting the payment he refused to fulfill his 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.”

Because of the above, a warrant of arrest was issued, that led to his arrest at the early hours of this morning.

He’s amazing, he’s so talented… Being in the same room with him while he’s creating can be very intimidating but he’s also very very humble and he works hard like an upcoming artiste.

He puts in his all into it and I love that, I love his energy.

Right after I dropped the Vibe, it just seemed like the next thing to drop and I could hear Duncan in it.

Duncan Mighty and myself have spoken for a long time about working together and so he was in Lagos and I invited him out to the studio and played him a couple of records and that one, in particular, he was like “I love this one” and in 10 to 15 minutes he wrote his verse and … it was just one of those unexplained moments”.

The hit single less than a month of its release has garnered over One Million views on Youtube and still counting.
