In June 2020, after D'banj had posted to social media to "say no to rape," Seyitan Babatayo accused him of raping her in 2018, saying she wanted to "[call] him out on his hypocrisy."[43][44][45][46] Shortly thereafter, she went missing for two days, and while she was missing, posts made to her social media said the allegations had been a publicity stunt to support an upcoming D'banj single.[43] According to The Guardian, she was found with help from the NGO Stand to End Rape (STER).[43] She said she'd been abducted by Nigerian police, who turned her over to D'banj's management team, who co-opted her social media and made the retraction posts.[43] D'banj denied the accusations, calling them "false allegations and lies from the pit of hell."[43][47] After several days, Babatayo issued a statement saying she and D'banj had agreed upon a "non-monetary" settlement, saying, "I just want my peace."[44]

On 7 December 2022, D'banj was arrested by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) in connection with alleged fraud.[51] The arrest came after D'banj repeatedly ignored invitations from the ICPC to provide an explanation regarding his involvement in the alleged diversion of funds earmarked for the N-Power project.

According to reports from Premium Times,[52] D'banj was detained by ICPC operatives on 7 December 2022 after he was compelled to surrender himself at the agency's headquarters in Abuja. It was revealed that D'banj had evaded ICPC summons for several weeks, claiming prior international engagements before his arrest.

The allegations against D'banj suggest that he conspired with certain government officials to include ghost beneficiaries in the N-Power payment scheme, diverting funds intended for genuine beneficiaries into accounts linked to him. Investigations have traced the flow of funds to accounts associated with D'banj.

Following his arrest, D'banj underwent an extensive interrogation and was subsequently detained when his request for administrative bail was turned down by ICPC officials. The Guardian newspaper has reported that the anti-graft agency is considering pressing charges against D'banj for alleged fraud and misappropriation of funds once their investigation is concluded.

The banj oak is a multipurpose tree. The acorns are edible and can be dried, ground and used to thicken stews or to make bread. The seeds can be roasted to prepare a coffee substitute (PFAF, 2014). The wood is a poor timber but a valuable fuel and is also used for making agricultural implements, and in low-grade construction. The galls that develop on the leaves are a natural source of gallic acid, a potential antitumoral/pro-oxidant agent (Patni et al., 2012). The gum from old trees is used in ethnomedicine for treating colds and as an analgesic (Gamble, 1922 cited by Forestry Nepal, 2014). In the Himalayas, banj oak foliage is a major source of fodder and the trees are lopped from December to June (Forestry Nepal, 2014). In the Mahakali Forest Division in Nepal, banj oaks represented 78% of privately owned forage trees (Hawkins et al., 1983 cited by Forestry Nepal, 2014). 2351a5e196
