Musician, Duncan Mighty, has regained his freedom after being arrested in Imo State over an allegation of fraud.
The Imo state police released the singer on bail.
Recall that Duncan Mighty was originally arrested owing to a petition alledging his involvement in an N11 million fraud.
The petition written by an up-and-coming rap artiste M2 who claimed that the Imo State Government led by former governor, Rochas Okorocha, through the office of the special adviser on entertainment, entered into a deal with Duncan Mighty to manage, promote and arrange collaboration with other top artistes and sign M2 under Young Wealth record label owned by Duncan Mighty.
The said agreement was sealed with a fee of N11 million which was paid to Duncan Mighty, however, since collecting the payment he refused to fulfill his own part of the deal.
Imo police spokesman, Godson Ikeokwu, said in a statement that the Port Harcourt-based singer was released on bail and is scheduled to report back on an unspecified date next week.
Duncan Mighty was initially rumoured to have been kidnapped by unknown gunmen. Chief Priest posted a video on social media saying that the singer was beaten and kidnapped by unknown gunmen.
The singer had earlier promised to refund the money if the contract was terminated. However, he was re-arrested after allegedly absconding.
