Elvis Poko, a Nigerian comedian, actor, and singer, has given controversial musician Portable 24 hours to refund his money after he breached a contract by failing to attend a music show.
Elvis Poko issued an ultimatum on his Instagram page, informing him that he doesn’t plan on involving the police in the matter.
The singer Portable was scheduled to perform at Elvis Poko’s “Elvis Poko Waterside Boy Tour Live In Concert” on June 30 in Warri, Delta State.
However, the ‘Zazoo’ singer was a no-show and has yet to refund the money he was reportedly paid.
In a statement on his page, Elvis wrote that he has directed his lawyers not to seek damages or compensation for the losses incurred as a result of his inability to appear.
He stated that he is a real person and has provided the street-hop singer 24 hours to refund him.
Elvis wrote:
“I personally instructed my Lawyers to not lay any claims for damages or compensations . I’m not your friend, I paid you in full . Your invoices and confirmation videos plus apology texts from you & your team are with Bar OJ . I’m not a social media person . I don’t chase clout on social media. I’m a real life person. Ogbeni I am giving you 24 hours to refund my money in full . I won’ t talk about this again !”
He added: “@portablebaeby @babyluvgram let it be on record, so the earth can bear me witness. I’m not going to court and I’m not getting the police involved as well. I need nothing off you, payback what I paid you… 24 hours is all you got.”
