Grenade Official has finally broken his silence on the real reason behind his recent arrest in China, revealing what he describes as a painful and unexpected ordeal during a music tour abroad.Appearing on NBS After 5, Grenade addressed reports that he had been apprehended by Chinese authorities for performing without a valid work permit.While confirming the arrest, the singer claimed there was more to the story than met the eye.It was a setup. It was between the promoters, mostly Ugandans and some Nigerians, but it was confusing. What the police told me, though, was that it was about the working permit.According to the artist, he was asked to either pay $3,000 on the spot to secure the required permit or face a month-long detention followed by deportation.I don’t travel when I don’t have money, but it really pained me. If I didn’t have the money in cash, I was doomed because they didn’t even let me touch my phone to call anyone.Grenade recounted the moment with a mixture of frustration and humor, joking that the $3,000 he had to cough up “could’ve bought him lots of clothes.”The post Grenade claims setup led to his arrest in China appeared first on MBU.
