‘Thank you my people’ – Iyanya appreciates Calabar for returning Mayorkun’s second pendant

Mayorkun’s pendant, which was taken in Calabar, Cross River State’s capital, on Tuesday, has been recovered.

On the request of the state government, the artist travelled to the state to perform at the 2023 Calabar Carnival.

Mayorkun stated on social media after his performance that his jewellery worth millions of naira had been stolen.

 

Condemning the crime, he pledged never to return to the state, describing the episode as a “nightmare.”

On Wednesday, one of the jewellery was discovered, and he resorted to social media to offer a N5 million prize to anyone who returns the other.

Giving an update on the incident on Thursday evening, singer Iyanya announced that the second jewelry has been returned.

Sharing the clip of how it was recovered, Iyanya wrote, “Thank you Calabar people for doing what’s right. @iammayorkun second pendant has been found.

“This morning we got a call that it was returned to @HitFMCalabar and was received by Mr Duke Emmanuel who later transferred the pendant to Hon. Effiong Ekpenyong MNIPR, FCAI, Special Adviser Events Management, Governor’s Office, Calabar. We remain a peaceful and hospitable state.”

Kanyidaily recalls that Soso Soberekon hailed Iyanya over romance with Yvonne Nelson in a viral video.
