Popular Nigerian musician, Dbanj has reportedly been arrested by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) for fraud.

Stipends meant for the beneficiaries of N-Power were reportedly paid into accounts linked with the Koko master.
The ICPC said it has invited Dbanj for questioning on many occasions but he didn’t honour their invitation, citing his busy schedule.
Following this, the ICPC began strategizing on how to arrest him, which caused Dbanj to show up at their headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.
After interrogations, Dbanj was detained and remains in the commission’s custody Wednesday morning.
However, the 41-year-old has yet to react to news of his detention.
