Popular singer, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, popularly known as Mayorkun has reportedly reclaimed a valuable chain that was stolen in Calabar.
Recall that Mayorkun had previously stated that he would never return to the Cross Rivers state capital after his multi-million naira jewellery was stolen while he was performing in the city.
He later announced a reward of N5 million for anyone who could help recover the lost items.
The development had stirred mixed reactions among his colleagues, city residents, and Nigerians.
The famous musician Iyanya had pleaded with anyone who had the stolen jewellery to return it and promised a reward for the gesture.
Shortly after the theft was reported, Iyanya announced on his social media handle that one of the stolen necklaces had been returned.
In a fortunate twist of events, Iyanya announced again on Thursday that another piece of jewellery belonging to Mayorkun had been found and returned.
Iyanya shared the news on his social media platform by posting a video showcasing the recovered jewellery.
Expressing his gratitude, Iyanya acknowledged the return of the second pendant and credited the efforts of those involved in its recovery.
The singer revealed that the pendant was handed over to the Special Adviser, Events Management, Governor’s Office, Calabar, Hon. Effiong Ekpenyong.
The pendant was initially received by Duke Emmanuel at Hit FM Calabar before being transferred to Hon. Effiong Ekpenyong.
Iyanya wrote,
“Thank you to my Calabar people for doing what’s right. # Mayorkun’s second pendant has been found.
