This isn’t the first time, Harrysong has called out his former employees.
Last year, while lamenting the issue of fake friendships in the Nigerian entertainment scene, he claimed that music executive, Soso Soberekon was after his life, and had sent people to kill him in Port Harcourt.
His statement had cost him his arrest as he was picked up at the airport on Tuesday, October 11, 2023, by the police, and after much drilling and failure to provide any proof of his claims, Harrysong bowed to pressure and apologized to Soso.
Harrysong claimed that he made the allegation because he was under pressure and had tendered an apology to him, which Soso accepted and dropped all charges against the singer.
Recall that in the wake of young promising singer, Mohbad’s death, Harrysong revealed that he would have died in the hands of his former label, if not for the grace of God and the assistance of good men around him.
He narrated how he suffered torment, attacks, abuses, and operations back to back, just because he served and wanted to move on.
Harrysong described his bitter ordeal as ‘hell’, as he noted how the public believed everything that was said about him, and he was bullied by all.
