Port-Harcourt-based singer, Duncan Mighty has accused Governor
Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State of owing him about N50million for
services he rendered to him sometimes ago.
The artiste, in a
mail sent out to some media platforms, said some of his colleagues have
now seen him as a bad person after his failure to pay them their
performance at the event the Governor told him to help organize for him.
He lamented that his efforts to get his money from the Governor have been met with brick walls.
Meanwhile, efforts made to contact the Chief Press Secretary of Rivers State Governor, David Ihiofor, on this matter were futile.
Below is his letter, urging Amaechi to pay the debt.
CALL TO GOVERNOR AMAECHI TO PAY ME FOR SERVICES RENDERED TO HIM AND HIS GOVERNMENT. FRIENDS NOW CALL ME A TRAITOR/SABOTEUR.………DUNCAN MIGHTY
"It is on record that on the 30th of March 2011, I, Mr. Okechukwu Duncan Mighty single handedly organized a Celebrity Youth Endorsement Concert in Port Harcourt where I successfully endorsed over 18,000 youths who are eligible voters for the Governor Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi
During the organization of the event under the express approval of the Governor of Rivers State and his cabinet, he gave me the sum of Ten Million Naira through the then secretary to the state Govt. Senator Magnus Abe which totally went into the project. The Governor also gave me his word that the balance of Fifty Million Naira will be paid to me as soon as possible.
In pursuit of the said project, I thereafter raised funds through different sources including personal savings, loans and credit facilities, acquired operational vehicles and branded them for the project, procured several souvenirs, printed many publicity materials, paid for venues, engaged musicians from different parts of the country, undertook logistics such as flight/Accommodation/Transportation and welfare.
