Terry G, Denrele, Grace Amah Ejected From Ebonyi Hotel

Popular musician Terry G, Channel O presenter,
Denrele, Nollywood actress, Grace Amah and a
host of other stars were Monday ejected from
their hotel in Abakaliki where they had lodged for
a programme organized to host Nollywood stars
of Ebonyi State origin who are making waves in the
entertainment industry.
The government had staged a show at the
weekend where it honoured over 50 stars of the
state's extraction in the entertainment industry.
Some of those honoured include Cha Cha Ekeh,
Grace Amah, Patoranking etc who hail from the
state.
But on Monday, some of the stars who attended
the show were forcefully ejected from hotel
belonging to a prominent politician in the state
where they were lodged by the state Ministry of
Culture and Tourism, organisers of the event.
The stars were seen at the Government House
protesting the shoddy treatment meted out to
them.
They said they entered into agreement with the
government to be paid a certain amount of money
as appearance fee which the state government
could not honour.
According to one of the stars, Sholade: "Instead of
them giving us our return tickets, our appearance
fee; they sent police men to forcefully eject us
from our hotel room."
It was learnt that the two cars whose keys were
handed over to Grace Amah and Patoranking at
the event, have not been delivered to the stars as
the organizers were yet to complete the payment
to the suppliers.
In a reaction, the Chairman of the Organising
Committee, Dr. Jerry Uhuo said only four days was
approved for the stars which elapsed Sunday
night.
He regretted that some of the artists misbehaved
including smoking against the stipulated rules in
the hotel where they were lodged.
