Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu is the head honcho at EeZee Conceptz Global, the label that launched Mercy Chinwo into gospel music stardom.

Vanguard reported that Justice Alexander Owoeye of a Federal High Court in Lagos granted a warrant of arrest against Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu.

The order followed a motion ex parte brought by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, seeking the arrest of the manager.

According to the EFCC, Mercy Chinwo claimed that the manager diverted about $345,000 without remitting her share. Read that complete story HERE.

In his post, Onyedikachukwu said: “This greed and betrayal that persists are beyond comprehension. Kindly post your bank statements and songs recorded 3 years before you were signed and 3 years after you got signed.

“You’re now attempting to claim ownership of a catalogue I fully funded. A body of work you never contributed financially to.

“Let me remind you, I founded the label that built your platform, put food on your table, and gave you opportunities beyond your dreams.

“Through God’s grace, I did this, and no one can erase the role Eezee Concept played in building your influence. I’ll continue to act lawfully, trusting the legal system and God to defend my peace and reputation.

“As Proverbs 17:13 says, ‘Whoever repays good with evil, evil will never depart from their house’.” 

‘You’ve received over $625,000’ – Mercy Chinwo’s ex-manager writes

Posting on his Instagram handle on Friday, Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu spoke on the royalty, monies, contracts and extortion.

The post read in part: “$625,000 – that is how much you have received from the eeZee Concept to date. But you would prefer to insulate that part to keep deceiving people and weeping (sic) sentiments on how you signed a bad contract or had been mistreated.

“It’s the same deal you desperately pursued me for years and had to get third parties to impress on EeZee Conceptz to sign you.

“Despite offering a 50/50 gross earnings ratio, you are still trying to weaponise law enforcement and religious organisations to take over a catalogue you did not spend one Naira on.

“You’ve received over $625,000 to date, but this situation persists. While claiming and singing it’s all for Jesus, your actions paint a different picture.

‘I housed you’

“I housed you for months before securing two-bedroom apartments for you and your band leader. You breached our contract by failing to deliver a third album and withholding funds for the label from content and events. When this happened, I didn’t attack you.

“Instead, I reached out, proposing a reconciliation meeting and even suggesting an independent audit for transparency.

“Last year, I was illegally detained by EFCC for nine days, far from Lagos, where our business took place. Under duress, $274,000 was extorted.

“Yet, I still didn’t resort to dragging you publicly. As a law-abiding citizen, I followed the legal processes outlined in the contract you signed with Eezee Conceptz.

“If your hands are clean, why avoid the Multidoor resolution process in our agreement? Why manipulate institutions to bully me?

“You deny the contract when it speaks of your obligations and our benefits but quote it when it benefits you. Discrediting the same document that you have hugely benefited from.”
