RnB crooner, Paul I.K
Dairo has sued Etisalat and Optima Media Group, the organizers of the
music talent show, Nigerian Idol show for the unlicensed usage of his
song, Mosorire. He accused them of reproducing his song on the show and
airing it on air as well as their you tube channel without his consent.
According to reports, the media group/organizers ignored Paul Play and
his lawyers when they had initially written to them. This left Paul Play
no
choice other than to drag the organizers to court.
Paul Play has sued them for N200m for special and general damages for
the flagrant and unlawful exploitation of his copyrighted work. The case
is expected to be heard in court soon.
Is this the right step for Paul Play??? Let’s know your views….
