One of Nigeria’s best comedian, Klint Da Drunk whose real name is Afamefuna Igwemba, is right about now doing everything possible to clear his name from an alleged fraud scandal involving him and a church in Abuja, the nation’s capital.From what we gathered, the church named Christos International Church, had paid Klint the sum of N250, 000 to anchor an empowerment programme organized by the church on Saturday March 22, 2014, but on the day of the event, the comedian was no where to be found.
All efforts by the church to get him online was to no avail as his phones were all switched off and attempts to make him refund the money was to no avail. But when Klint was contacted, he gave a different account of the issue.
This is what he said:
The date I was given by the church was Sunday, March 23, 2014, as against March 22, which they claimed.
But the church has countered his claim saying that they had also contracted two other entertainers, Frank Edwards and Asu Ekiye for the same event and the two were in attendance, so they could not have made any mistake.
Meanwhile, the church says it has reported the case to the police and that they will do anything to recover their money from the comedian
