Mayorkun Finally Speaks On Accusations By Nickie Dabarbie Of Money Ritual Attempt

Nigerian singer, Mayorkun has spoken out against allegations made by social media influencer, Nicki Dabarbie, who claimed he and his colleague Skiibii tried to use her for money ritual.

On Friday, April 19, Nicki Dabarbie accused Mayorkun and Skibii of allegedly trying to use her for ‘money ritual’.

Reacting via his X page on Wednesday, May 15, Mayorkun denied the accusations, saying he had never even met Nicki Dabarbie until the allegations came up.

He emphasized that he took time to respond to the allegations to avoid reacting emotionally but felt compelled to defend his reputation publicly due to the impact on his career.

The singer expressed disappointment with people who readily believe false accusations for attention without considering the consequences.

Mayorkun noted that that he will pursue legal action against Nicki Dabarbie despite her current imprisonment on unrelated charges.

He said, “You know, I was going to let this remain as a court case but when I checked the comments under some of the blogs where these ridiculous allegations were posted, I was quickly reminded of how gullible most people are on the internet and how they are ready to run along, spreading any negative news without any form of clarity.

“Just for the record, I never met that person on the said day, still never seen that person till this day, never knew about that person’s existence not until those allegations came up.. yet she claimed I put ‘something’ in her drink.

“A lot of people believed that story and you think I’ll let this libellous claim fly? Hell fucking NO!

“I took this time off because I didn’t want to act out based off of emotions, because if I did; I’ll definitely act out of character and that is not who I am.

“For weeks; I’ve been getting calls from brands I work with, colleagues, friends & family about this rubbish and you know what makes it worse? You social media commentators, internet police, even people I used to think I’m cool with.. scrambling for the tiniest bit of clout and relevance, cluelessly jumping on anything not bothered if it’s someone’s life or career on the line; it might be yours tomorrow.

“I wanna re-instate, I have never seen this person before even as I am typing this! I still haven’t set my eyes on this person.. Like what else can I say? How else can I prove this?

“There’s no need for me to ask for an apology where I won’t get any. I just needed to say this publicly and get it off my chest.. cos if it was a case of ‘cancellation’ as many people are quick to do, I for don go back to dey find work for bank.

“But as they didn’t wait to hear my side of the story before they slandered my name, I would keep the same energy and not listen to anyone’s opinion while I press full charges.. even though I’m aware she’s remanded in prison at the moment but not on my own charge.. YET!”

KanyiDaily recalls that Mayorkun had earlier threatened to slam Nicki Dabarbie with N1billion lawsuit.
