Nigerian media personality Destiny Ezeyim, popularly known as Radiogad, has publicly demanded that skit maker Chukwuebuka Emmanuel, popularly known as Brain Jotter, pay N100 million to veteran singer Mike Ejeagha.
This call comes after Brain Jotter’s recent dance challenge featuring Mike Ejeagha’s song “Gwo Gwo Gwo Ngwo” went viral.
The dance challenge, which quickly gained international popularity, saw both young and old participants from Nigeria and the diaspora showcasing their moves to the legendary folklore music.
Radiogad alleges that Brain Jotter has profited immensely from the challenge, claiming that the skit maker earned over N400 million through the use of Mike Ejeagha’s intellectual property.
In response, Radiogad insists that the mere N2 million Brain Jotter initially announced for Ejeagha is far too unreasonable, given the massive profits generated from the viral dance challenge.
The post reads:
“Brain Jotter Should Pay Mike Ejeagha 100 million naira for using his sound to trend on social media,” Radiogad asserted on his Instagram page. “Our Legend deserves more than 2 million naira. Brain jotter, you can do better. I give you 24 hours to do the right thing or you will hear from the lawyer I have arranged for Mike Ejeagha.”
