New Telegraph had earlier reported that the singer was arrested by the Police over his refusal to pay the sum of N14m debt he incurred when he purchased a G-Wagon from a car dealer in Lagos State.

While purchasing the vehicle worth N27m, the singer reportedly paid only N13m and refused to pay the N14m balance claiming that the vehicle was bad.

Despite several failed attempts to get him to pay the balance, the car dealer reported the matter to the police.
