Well-known Nigerian artist Oluwatosin Ajibade, better known by his stage as Mr Eazi, has accused comedian I Go Dye with embezzling money from him.
In an interview with the Afrobeats Intelligence podcast, Mr. Eazi detailed how, despite being paid to play, the comedian did not show up for a concert he arranged in Ghana.
He said, “I had the first social award of my university, Swagatainment Award. That was when I booked R2Beees, Wande Coal and Sarkodie. Wande Coal was in town but didn’t show up at the event. I did not know he didn’t receive his full money.
“I was like begging Sarkodie. It was about $2,500. Please, come on stage even though I have not paid you in full. And he saved me by coming on stage. That is why he is more than a friend. He is my brother. I had Sarkodie, R2Bees. I Go Dye ran away with my money.
“I remember texting him that ‘you never pay me my money.’ I hope the next time I see him, I will tell him bro, you still need to pay me my money. it is not a beef. It is somewhere in the back of my mind.
