Nigerian artist Iyanya has responded to Mayorkun’s outcry about a negative incident he experienced in Calabar, Cross River. Mayorkun, after performing at an end-of-year event, posted a message online stating that he would never return to Calabar.
In the post, Mayorkun expressed reservations about accepting an invitation to return to Calabar without disclosing the specific reasons for his decision. Iyanya has reacted to Mayorkun’s statement, which has since gone viral, but the details of Iyanya’s response are not provided in the given information.
Mayorkun shared a picture of himself performing on stage and captioned it; “CALABAR, You’ll probably NEVER EVER see me again, Good luck to the other artists coming for your festivals tho.”
As he begged fellow indigenous people to return the stolen item, the Cross River native and Kukere musician alluded to the fact that one of his colleagues had been the victim of theft during the event. Iyanya posted a tweet:
“My calabar people, this is very bad for the peaceful people I know us to be. The government has brought my colleagues to entertain you, all you owe them is protection and great hospitality. If you know anyone who stole from my brother , please return it and I will personally compensate you… Drop it at THE GRAND HOTEL I will personally compensate you PLEASE.
