Nigerian singer, Danny Young, has filed a N200 million lawsuit against Tiwa Savage and Mavin Records for copyright infringement.
Danny Young’s lawyer, Creative Legal, is suing Tiwa Savage for alleged unlawful copyright of his 2009 single, Oju Tiwon, in her 2018 single, ‘One’.
The lawsuit (Suit No: FHC/L/CS/230/2019) was filed at the Federal High Court, Lagos, on February 13, 2019.
Danny Young had threatened to sue the Mavin singer since 2018. He however claims to have gone ahead with the lawsuit because he was “snubbed” by Tiwa Savage and her team.
The video for the song, ‘One’ was taken off YouTube after it was reported by a third party user but Tiwa Savage shared on Instastory on Saturday that it had been restored.
