Paul I.K Dairo has sued Etisalat and Optima
Media Group who stages the yearly Nigerian
Idol show for the unauthorized 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 a source, Paul Play wouldn't
have sued them if only the companies agreed
to his terms when his lawyers wrote them,
but they turned deaf ears to him and his
lawyers instead, which left them with no
choice than to sue them.
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. Check out some of the court
documents after the cut.
