Cynthia Morgan In Financial Crisis?
This is not the best of news as regards Nigeria’s female dance- hall artiste, Cynthia Morgan. According to recent news trending on the social media, the ‘German Juice’ crooner is experiencing some financial woes at the moment.
It was reported that Cynthia Morgan has been hit with many troubles in recent times which might explain her absence from the music scene.
It was also disclosed that the singer has been served quit notice from her landlord due to unpaid rent and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has also served her court papers for evading her tax.
“The court papers have been submitted to Cynthia Morgan’s apartment already and she has been served a court date. She owes N1.3 million. She was also served court papers for not paying up N3.584 million in tax and it was the real estate agent who got her the apartment that sued her on behalf of client”, the source said.
However, her representative when contacted denied the news saying he was not aware of any court papers and Cynthia Morgan wasn’t owing any rents. “I do not know anything like that and I would say it is a lie, I do not know any court papers, so I would say that it is a lie. To the best of my knowledge, I am not aware that she owes her landlord any money. I believe that if they claim that she smokes, entertains strange guests and leaves the gate open at odd hours, they should have proof. In my book, non of the statement is factual. I don’t know about these details and I would say that it is a lie?” he said.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
