A stolen diamond necklace belonging to singer Mayorkun has been returned hours after he vowed never to perform in Calabar again.
Mayorkun who performed at the Calabar Festival on Monday night, lamented bitterly after he was robbed of two of his expensive jewellery.
“I just want to wake up from this dream bro,” he wrote on X.
“CALABAR, You’ll probably NEVER EVER see me again, goodluck to the other artistes coming for your festivals tho,” the singer added.
“Never again,” he wrote on Instagram.
Reacting via X on Tuesday, Mayorkun’s colleague Iyanya, who is from Cross River state, pleaded with the thief to return the stolen item with the promise of a reward.
He wrote: “My calabar people, this is very bad for the peaceful people I know us to be. The government has brought my colleagues to entertain you, all you owe them is protection and great hospitality.
“If you know anyone who stole from my brother, please return it and I will personally compensate you. Drop it at THE GRAND HOTEL, I will personally compensate you PLEASE.”

Hours after his tweet, Iyanya made another post announcing that one of the items had been returned.
He wrote: “Thank you the guy who brought this back this morning to THE GRAND HOTEL CALABAR. Just returned now is 1 of 2 of @Mayorkun jewery. We have one more to go, my brothers if you have the second one please help us return it.
“This one is still not been found, please check around, I’m sure we have it somewhere and will please return the second one to our brother, before he leaves Calabar. Just got Grand Hotel Calabar and drop it there, there’s a reward waiting for you on arrival.”
