A dramatic scene unfolded at the Federal High Court in Lagos on Thursday, as gospel record executive Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu, popularly known as Eezee Tee, allegedly fled the court premises following the adjournment of his case with Mercy Chinwo.
According to TheCable NG, the spectacle occurred moments after Justice Alexander Owoeye postponed the much-anticipated arraignment to May 14, citing ongoing administrative formalities.
The Shocking Escape
As Eezee Tee exited the courtroom, a crowd of journalists and media personnel were already stationed, cameras in hand, ready to document the event.
However, in a surprising twist, the music executive allegedly took off running, leaving journalists scrambling to keep up. A photo of his escape quickly surfaced online, igniting widespread reactions.
The Allegations Against Eezee Tee
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has accused Eezee Tee of:
Money laundering involving $340,000.
Misappropriating funds from Mercy Chinwo’s digital earnings and event revenues.
Altering their 2017 contract without her consent—an allegation he has strongly denied, calling it “lies from the pit of hell.”
Court Proceedings
During the hearing, both the prosecution (Bilikisu Buhari) and the defense (Chikaosolu Ojukwu) confirmed their readiness to proceed. However, the judge stated that administrative procedures had delayed the case, leading to the adjournment.
Public Reactions
Following the incident, social media users flooded comment sections with mixed reactions, with some mocking Eezee Tee’s alleged “fastest man alive” moment, while others questioned the credibility of the accusations.
As the case unfolds, all eyes remain on the courtroom, awaiting the next chapter in this legal battle between the former business partners.
