Former record label of singer Kizz Daniel proceeds with the lawsuit against him
It seems that the battle between Kizz Daniel and his former record label has not ended, but just began.
It all started in 2017 when the artist left the label G-worldwide in a rather unusual manner.
Kizz Daniel, however, didn’t stop there. He also went unto the internet to ruin the reputation of the label.
G-worldwide was the artist’s first record label. It was the label from which he came into the limelight and became famous.
After the Incident, the label went on to file a lawsuit against the artist for breach of contract in the Lagos state high court.
They also filed another lawsuit in the federal high court for infringement of intellectual property by the artist.
The case however had been pending in the court.
Recently, the label doubled their efforts against the artist as they engaged the law firm of Olisa Agbakoba. The pursuit was led by renowned SAN, Dr. Olisa Agbakoba.
A court hearing was held on Monday 7th October where the counsel delivered his application.
In seeking redress for the artists’ behavior, the label is praying for the payment of two hundred million Naira by the artist for general damage.
They also requested about one hundred and eighty million Naira for breach of contract. Finally, they asked he paid one hundred and fifty million Naira for contract exit fees among others.
The hearing of the case was however adjourned to the 21st of January 2020.
The CEO of the label; Mr. Micheal Ehimare went of to justify his actions saying it will serve as a lesson to other artists who plan on doing the same.
He also advised upcoming artists to abide by the terms and conditions of contracts to avoid the huge consequences of breaching contracts.
Well, this is a really deep one for the “Pak n go” singer.
We hope he gets out of this mess and makes it to the other side!!
