Thank God, the former manager of the two artistes and CEO of Eezee Global Concepts Limited, is facing the new charges alongside his company before the Lagos State Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja. The case is marked ID/25810c/25.
According to the charge sheet, signed by prosecuting counsel Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), Bilikisu Buhari-Bala, and Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, the defendant allegedly dishonestly converted large sums of money belonging to Chinwo and Kanayo during his management of their careers in 2023.
The breakdown of the charges reads as follows:
* Count One: Theft of $112,985 belonging to Mercy Chinwo and Judith Kanayo.
* Count Two: Theft of $260,494 belonging to the same duo.
* Count Three: Theft of $69,892, also allegedly misappropriated from Chinwo and Kanayo.
The EFCC says these offences contravene Sections 280(1)(a) and 287 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
While the arraignment date is yet to be set, this is not ThankGod’s first brush with the law.
He is currently standing trial in a separate criminal case before the Federal High Court in Lagos over alleged money laundering and foreign exchange malpractice involving another $397,106.
In that seven-count charge, ThankGod and Eezee Global Concepts Limited are accused of conducting unauthorized foreign exchange transactions and disguising the origins of funds through multiple transfers.
One of the counts alleges that he negotiated a forex deal worth $52,895 in June 2023 with one Mr. Oladotun Olaobaju Mureke, despite not being licensed by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Originally arraigned before Justice Owoeye, the case was reassigned to Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke, who has fixed September 26, 2025, for the continuation of trial.
ThankGod remains a prominent figure in Nigeria’s gospel music industry, credited with launching the careers of several top artists. His recent legal troubles, however, have cast a shadow over Eezee Global’s operations.
