If her name is not trade marked, then I'm not sure she has a strong case

bibiking7:



What if he brings another person bearing the same name and claims that the song was about that person.
Then he counter sues her for something else.

Wisdom 💯

I support her a billion times, and may God prosper her lawsuit against the fool.These fools calling themselves artists always behave abnormally as if something is congenitally wrong with their brain.

She doesn't actually. Like is she the only person on planet Earth answering that name?

Obidiz wey neva blow... Where u wan make e see d money from? Jst tell d court u were not referring to her... Shikenan... No be only u dey bear dis name

Actually I think she does.it is why movies have disclaimers. Any resemblance is purely coincidental etc. If portable were to use your name in a song about the joys of watermelon without your permission can we say you have no case?

illicit:
Where obidiz wan see 2 billion

for POS.

Exactly! If I were her, I'll trademark my name once and for all

Seconded and thirded. Christians should be courageous to stand with God all the time.

even if her name is trademarked. Obidiz could say he wasn't referring to her.

His lyrics can be viewed from different perspective. This is something she should have looked away from....

Romanoff:
In that context, it is actually derogatory.

She just wan scare the guy, where the guy wan see 2billion?

If then hawk all him family members for sale sef, them no reach 2bil.

Did you say hawk?
Sis you get bad mouth sha...

jclassiq:


These are hungry hustlers calling themselves musicians. Singing rubbish.

Musicians are people like tuface, oritshe Femi, Faze, timaya, flavour, magnito, sound sultan, etc.

blud added Sound Sultan... Why didn't you add MJ to the list as well

Someone will say this is a publicity stunt because I have never heard of this dude until today

is she the only Nigerian answering Mercy Chinwo?

It serves him better.

Octopusssy:

well those who listen to this type of music know him, and like you, I don't even know him or even bother to.

I want to see how far this will go. Demanding 2 billion is far fetched...

He deserves it.

Although there's nothing defamatory in those words.

He literally said the Jane Doe is a good girl in Church but a bad girl in club.
Mercy chinwo has no case in that defamatory claim, Only unauthorized use of name

you are dying for me 😍😍😍

Unauthorized use of name and image. please we should read in-between the lines. If she is not the only one bearing Mercy Chinwo, why using her image as well??

Are you not tired of trolling moh

BaddestQueen:

Feyistar:

This case is a bit dicey, first she might not be the only one bearing Mercy Chinwo, secondly if the guy did not use her image on his music video then there is a high possibility she might not win the case but if her name has a copy right trade mark like Omotola it is a serious case, the guy can claim the Mercy Chinwo is someone else or a figment of his imagination for his music, well this is my own opinion.

Lawyers in the house might explain better

if she is not the only one , yes. But let the guy bring another Mercy Chinwo with a valid ID backing it

I'll stop because I you love me so much ❤️
