Few days ago, the Nigerian
social media space was set on fire after the sex tape of Nigerian singer, Douglas
Jack Agu a.k.a Runtown, was leaked.
Eric Many who obtained a
Federal High Court injunction on the singer, restraining him from performing
and recording till he settles his debt with the label, have also ran a private
investigation on leaked blackmail ‘sex tape’ which uncovered Runtown as the
alleged sponsor of the leaked photos.
A statement which disclosed
the outcome of the label’s investigation, reads in part;
‘Preliminary findings have
revealed that the released sex tape and Whatsapp chat purportedly leaked by
Runtown’s label is totally fake and a badly executed stunt by the artist
himself. Investigations have led to the capture of a suspect (name withheld)
who confessed to using a fake Instagram account to spread the false sex tape
leak on Runtown’s request’.
‘We have maintained from
the beginning of this saga that Eric Many has a verifiable court injunction
against Runtown and we’ll not resort to blackmail or cheap social media stunts
as we believe in the rule of law. Investigations are on-going as regards the
leaked sex tape story and we’ll let the law take its full course’ the statement
said.
On the outcome of the
investigation, Eric Many General Manager Johnson Adumike said;
‘Ericmany has been
vindicated but we refuse to be drawn into media war with Runtown who the label
made and will therefore not destroy.
‘Moreover, trying to use a
sex tape to black mail Runtown is just like using a bottle of whisky to
blackmail a drunk’ a former Ericmany staff who is very close to the singer
said.
When contacted to comment
on the ongoing court case Eric Many has with the singer, Eric Many Chairman
Prince Okwudili Umenyiora, refused to, saying he would never comment on the
Runtown issue openly as he remains the baby of the Label company, and that
“after every war comes peace”.
