On Wednesday, the anti-graft agency announced Eezee Tee’s arraignment in a statement.

“The Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, arraigned a music promoter, Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu ThankGod, (a.k.a Eezee Tee) before Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos,” the statement read.

It added, “ThankGod, alongside his company, Eezee Global Concepts Limited, is standing trial on an amended seven-count charge bordering on alleged foreign exchange malpractice and money laundering to the tune of $397,106( Three Hundred and Ninety Seven, One Hundred and Six United States Dollars).”

Eezee Tee, however, pleaded “not guilty” when the charges were read to him in court, while his lawyer moved for his bail. However, the court adjourned the ruling on Eezee Tee’s bail application to May 9.

This comes a few months after Eezee Tee and Ms Chinwo fell apart over a royalty and contract agreement.

The duo have accused each other of cheating in hot exchanges on social media, generating huge reactions amongst their followers.
