An upcoming artiste based in Kaduna impersonated musician MI Abaga and left with millions a source told KWARARAFA REPORTERS.

According to the source, two top state functionaries had assured Governor Darius Ishaku that MI would be among the stars guest list to perform at the event.
He said, "they were waiting to receive MI when another person came out of the car.  One of the state official was shocked and said "you are not MI. The artiste said he was the one that was contacted and he had nothing to do with MI. He was already fully paid in the name of MI."

The governor reportedly waited to see the MI performance which never happened till he left the building, says the source.
