A Nigerian lawyer urges the veteran highlife singer, Gentleman Mike Ejeagha to sue skit maker, Brain Jotter for using his song to rake millions of naira while offering only N2M compensation.
This came after the skit maker began his hunt for the highlife singer following a viral skit using his song from 2010.
Taking to the X platform, the legal practitioner identified simply as Nupe Lawyer emphasized the implication of Copyright Infringement.
According to him, Mike Ejeagha would make more suing Brain Jotter than accepting the token of N2 million naira as compensation.
“I hope the man has a good lawyer
you can’t use someone’s song for content raking millions and offer to give the man “2million” as if you are helping the man
,” he wrote.
The post has since sparked mixed feelings from social media users who argued that the music had been dormant and never made that much in the last 14 years.
