The Real Story Behind Jim Iyke’s Alleged Fight and Arrest in Ghana

Some days ago multiple reports appeared on the social media
claiming that the renowned Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke, was
involved in a brawl at the Crave Cafe at Adjiringanor, East
Legon – Accra, Ghana.

The actor later got furious over such reports, therefore
Nigeriafilms made its own investigation of the
controversial story.

Nigeriafilms.com correspondent in Ghana, Mustapha Ayinde
Inusah, a.k.a. Attractive, spoke to Nana Kwesi, who invited
Jim Iyke to the Cahaya lounge, where the incident happened.
The source laughed at "how funny people twist and turn
stories around," declared that all the details given in the
publication about Jim Iyke fighting over $ 10,000 were
fabricated.

"There was an issue between Jim Iyke and his business
partner (name not disclosed to us) at the Cahaya Lounge just
opposite ex-President J. J. Rawlings house and not Crave Café
as the media reported it. The issue had nothing to do with Jim
Iyke fighting over $ 10,000. Also, Jim Iyke never attempted
to pull a gun," Nana Kwesi revealed.

Nana narrated that he invited Jim Iyke to Cahaya Lounge to
discuss a water treatment project (clean water and chemical
treatment of water). When the actor got to Cahaya Lounge
with his car and parked, another car drove in and parked just
behind Jim Ike's car.

As the driver parked, he got out and started behaving funny.
The gentleman wanted to attack Jim Iyke, so Nana intervened
and prevented the man from attacking Jim.

The man went back to his car and pulled an amount of $10,000, haranguing that he wanted to give it to Jim Iyke, if
the latter had signed a particular document.

The man also said he invited Jim Iyke into a meeting at Royal
Fiesta hotel and that he was his business partner.

Jim Iyke got there and he was asked to sign a contract but
because the contract was not too clear, Jim requested that
there is a need to involve a lawyer or legal brain to peruse the
document before he could append his signature on it.

That was the root of man's annoyance. The gentleman
accused Jim Iyke of wasting his time and also spoiling his
business because there were other people involved who
wanted Jim to sign so they can carry on with the business.

The gentleman further reported to the police that Jim Ike had
attacked him. When the police got to the scene, the people
around who was also hob-nobing and were eye witnesses to
what ensued, narrated to the police that it is the man who
rather attacked Jim Iyke and not the converse. The police left
without causing any arrest.

Unfortunately, the reported failed to learn the name of the
mysterious business partner of Jim Iyke at the time of writing
this article. Nevertheless, he promised to keep trying and,
probably an update in this story awaits us.
