Mr Drew Slapped With Lawsuit For No-Show Despite Pocketing Part Payment
Mr Drew and DJ Filter are facing a lawsuit from event organiser Jamrock Bar and Event Center.
Despite receiving a partial payment, the duo failed to show up at a scheduled event, leading to the aggrieved party seeking damages of GHC200,000.
The plaintiff claims that the artiste and DJ did not fulfill their commitment on Easter Monday, despite prior arrangements and a payment of GHC15,000.
The suit was filed on April 15, 2024, at the Senchi District Court, as indicated in a Facebook post by the events organiser.
Jamrock Bar and Event Center is requesting the court to not only recover the GHC15,000 paid to Mr Drew but also provide additional compensation for the total expenses of the event, amounting to GHC36,511.
The event organiser also highlights the significant harm caused to their reputation due to the artiste’s absence, and is seeking damages accordingly.
“In a suit filed on Monday, April 15, 2024, at the District Court at Senchi in the Asuogyaman District, Jamrok Bar and Event Center has sued Mr Drew and his DJ (DJ Filter) for the recovery of an amount of GHC15,000 they paid to Mr Drew to perform at an event on Easter Monday, which he, Mr Drew failed to honour.
“They are also pleading with the court to order Mr Drew to pay all the money they spent to organise the event, which amounts to GHC36,511.
The organisers further claim that Mr Drew’s failure to show up for the event severely tarnished their image, and for that, they are demanding GHC200,000 as damages from Mr Drew,” the events centre shared on its official Facebook handle.
