Dammy Krane’s mother thanks God over his arrest
The arrest of popular Nigerian singer and performer, Dammy Krane, has taken over space on social media as it has stirred up mixed reactions and controversies. A few days ago, reports made the rounds that Krane was arrested in Miami, United States for grand theft, credit card fraud and Identity fraud. Although Dammy Krane spoke up on Twitter after arrest, he is currently being held in jail at the Miami Dade County Corrections as he awaits to meet his bond requirement. Dammy Krane’s mother thanks God over his arrest.
Following the development, his mother, Elizabeth Adeola Oshodi, has issued an official statement through her Facebook account. She claimed that Dammy Krane’s flight ticket and hotel bookings were fraudulently purchased by a show promoter before he got arrested while trying to board a flight from Maimi to Washington. Also, she warned all artistes to purchase their ticket by themselves to avoid a similar incident.

Here’s what she wrote: “As an artiste, promoters book your hotel stays and often buy your destination tickets. It’s never once crossed our hearts as a performing entertainment family, to have to verify that the sources of bookings are legitimate. And please, keep in mind that we’ve been in the industry for almost 15 years. Then came the unfortunate past Friday, when Dammy Krane got arrested trying to board a flight from Maimi to Washington: Maryland.
“His ticket and hotel bookings were fraudulently purchased by the next show promoter (s). And because of Dammy Krane’s fame, all accusatory hell, broke loose. We thank God for His goodness and the great spirit of truth. He will have his day in court to clear his name, he will give his personal press release shortly, however, I have decided to speak up against insinuations of fraudulency and grand theft. Dammy is a true gentle and honest citizen of our planet, and remains a good ambassador for not just the music industry, but Nigeria as a whole.

“I also will like to seize this rare opportunity to warn all promoters, entertainers, the music industry ,the performing arts world & all travel prone individuals to , from now on ;
1.) Buy your tickets yourself.
2.) Ensure by prior verification that your ticket and hotel reservations match the purchaser’s info.
How? By declining emergency arrangements that do not give up to 24 to 48 hours to allow you call the airlines and hotels for verifications. Remember to always give the option for promoters or show organizers to buy all bookings and must accompany with the booking profiles : the names used for bookings, and phone numbers must match your designated or named offers, or they will need to send the cash in their verifiable names to your business account.
