D’banj after his release from the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission opened up on what happened.
The singer was detained on December 6, 2022, over allegations of fraud associated with the N-Power programme.
He was released on self-recognition by the ICPC on Friday and thereafter took to his social media handles a few hours after he was released and denied any fraudulent dealing.
The singer said he didn’t engage in fraud.
He said, “Global thank you to the world. I was invited on an ongoing investigation in the ICPC. I have assisted the commission with all I know and I am confident in their capacity to unravel the truth. I have no business with fraud, all I do is chop life. I was released on self-recognition because nothing was seen or found on me. God bless you all my people.”
