December 07, (THEWILL) – Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti, said the arrest of singer, Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo, aka D’Banj, by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), on fraudulent charges is simply a reinforcement of his belief that the entertainment industry is a conduit for money laundering.
Reacting to DBanj’s detention, he took to the comment section of an Instagram post saying that the Nigerian entertainment industry is a scam for money laundering.
“We have always said there is no way they are doing anything as politicians without the active connivance of the leading blacks!”
He then asked, “So na today we know say Nigerian entertainment na scam for money laundering?”
D’banj was detained by ICPC operatives on Tuesday, December 6, at the agency’s headquarters, where he is being interrogated on allegations of fraud.
The 42-year-old is being asked to explain his role in the alleged diversion of funds earmarked for the N-Power project.
N-power is part of the Social Investment Programmes (SIPs), set up by the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration to tackle unemployment and increase social development.
