Nigerian music star Tobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, popularly known as Kizz Daniel, has reportedly found himself in fresh legal trouble as a court has allegedly ordered the freezing of both his personal and business accounts over a contract dispute.
According to emerging reports and online documents, the action follows a directive requiring the award-winning singer to pay more than €200,000 in damages after he allegedly failed to perform at a scheduled show despite receiving a $50,000 advance payment. Details of the ruling and the specific court involved remain sketchy at the time of filing this report, but the development has sparked widespread discussion across social media and entertainment circles.
The controversy gained further traction after a social media user identified as Bankiis publicly warned event promoters to steer clear of booking Kizz Daniel until the legal matter is resolved. In a strongly worded advisory, Bankiis alleged that the singer has a “pattern of not showing up for shows,” leaving promoters stranded and audiences disappointed. He further claimed that Kizz Daniel currently lacks the market strength to guarantee profitable returns for promoters, describing any engagement with the artist as a “major risk.”
“Promoters are strongly warned against booking @kizzdaniel. It is a major risk and highly likely to result in loss. From past experience, he has shown a pattern of not showing up for shows, leaving promoters stranded and audiences disappointed,” the post read in part, accusing the singer of engaging in “fraudulent practices” that hurt the entertainment industry, particularly in Europe.
As of now, Kizz Daniel or his management team is yet to issue an official response to the reports. The alleged account freeze and damages order, if confirmed, could mark one of the most significant legal and financial challenges of the singer’s career.
Kizz Daniel, known for a string of chart-topping hits and energetic stage performances, has faced occasional controversies in the past, including show cancellations that have drawn criticism from fans and promoters alike. Entertainment industry watchers say the outcome of this case could have serious implications for his international bookings and reputation.
