Popular singer Chris Brown was paid at least $1m (about N156m) to travel down to Lagos with a 15 man crew last week, NET investigations have revealed.

The Grammy-winning singer stopped over in South Africa, for concerts in Cape Town and Jo'burg, before heading down to Lagos for the show.

The Lagos event, built into Brown's on-going world tour, was organised by Kilimanjaro Events – same company that promoted Rick Ross and Anita Baker in the past.

Financial details were not made public, but we found that Oando boss Wale Tinubu was a major financier, as well as Etisalat, which provided last minute sponsorship.

Brown was to make a brief appearance at the Oando end-of-year gig, but we're told that did not happen.
It was Brown's second time in Nigeria, the first being for a THISDAY Music Festival performance a few years ago.
Sources told us the fees 'could have been more' if he was required to perform with a live band or if he had to do multiple venues or cities.

Although he performed with a DJ and backing track, with two back-up singers and four dancers, he gave a good account of himself, treating fans to almost two hours of a well-planned set that left guests asking for more.
Chris Brown's tour will continue early next year with a scheduled performance in Cote D'Ivoire.
