Sharing a picture of Ikpaka’s mugshot, Flavour wrote “One down. Ndi uchu!” which translates to “One down. The wicked ones!” in English.
The musician’s reaction comes after Ikpaka was found guilty of impersonating him and scamming Yvelte M. Thompson out of $53,000.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) led the investigation, recovering N7.9 million from the defendant.
