D’banj used to pay me N50k for shows I got booked for N1.5m – Ikechukwu recounts experience at Mohits [VIDEO]

• Ikechukwu has recounted his experience at defunct Mohits records which was at the time owned by D’banj and Don Jazzy.

• Ikechukwu also added that D’banj’s mother was a major decision maker in the label, and anything she says, goes.

Nigerian rapper and actor Ikechukwu Onunaku, professionally known as Ikechukwu has opened up about his experience at the now-defunct record label, Mohits Records, owned by D’banj and Don Jazzy.

In a recent interview with media personality Daddy Freeze, Ikechukwu stated that although he understands that discussing intricate details of his time at the label might upset D’banj, he wants to speak his truth because ‘the truth is the truth’

According to him, D’banj used to pay him a meagre N50,000 for shows he was booked for, despite the actual fee being over N1.5 million. He said the ‘koko master’ used to treat him like he was doing him a favour.

However, he mentioned that D’banj later increased the payment to N150,000 after obtaining permission from his mother, who played a significant role in the label’s decision-making process.

Speaking further, Ikechukwu debunked claims of being involved in a physical altercation with D’banj years ago, adding that he served as D’banj’s bodyguard. He emphasized that nothing like that happened.
