Access Bank Paid $1m For Mariah Carey's Perfomance After Firing 200 Workers by lolaxavier(m): 8:12pm On Jan 03, 2014
Mariah Carey's controversial perfomance in Nigeria that was hosted by Access Bank on Saturday, December 14, 2013 for it's outgoing Managing Director Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede has been hit by reports that the bank laid off 200 workers recently but paid the American beauty a million dollars.
Sources say Aig-Imoukhuede, a big fan of Mariah Carey was the one who wanted the US star to perform at the gig at all cost.
Carey was paid and flown into the country along with her live band. A day after her trip to the country, she was accused by a US website of ‘performing for money men in Nigeria’.
Her visit and performance here upset more than a few, especially after it emerged the bank which has disengaged thousands of workers since 2012, had paid her generously.
Since February 2013, Access Bank has been in court with about 1,500 former employees of the bank who instituted a case against the bank which they claim ‘illegally withheld, manipulated and mismanaged’ their gratuities and severance packages.
The party was described by those who attended as very extravagant and lavish as food and almost every kind of drinks were in abundance.

A friend of told me about the party. I wished I could make it but it was only for staffs.

On the other hand, it shows how corrupt these Nigerian CEOs are. It would be better if there's some sort of regulation.
