In an interview with PunchNG Saturday Beats, Jaywon addressed the accusation of intellectual property theft levelled against him and X3M Music singer, Simi. Recently, veteran musician, Sir Victor Uwaifo came out to accuse the two singers of pirating his song without his permission.

In the interview, Jaywon admitted that he got the inspiration for his song through Sir Victor Uwaifo’s hit song, ‘Joromi,’ adding that he made efforts to contact the veteran singer officially but his attempt did not yield a result.

He said, “There is no way I can talk about my hit song, Joromi, without talking about Sir Victor Uwaifo, who we all grew up listening to his music. The whole idea of the song is different from Sir Victor Uwaifo’s but the title reminds anyone of his song. I cannot take away the fact that his song inspired mine. I felt that I should tap into the current beat making rounds in Africa with the song. My song is a love song and I also saw it as an opportunity to promote my artiste, Twist da Fireman, who was also on the song. He added a different sound to the song. I am happy everyone loves the song. I keep working because it is difficult to know the song people would love, so I keep working till I get it right.

“The truth is that I actually wanted to write an official letter to Sir Victor Uwaifo about the issue but when I asked around, I was told that he was not in Lagos. It was just the title and they are not even pronounced the same way. I know what it means to tap into someone’s intellectual property. I would not be that stupid to take someone’s intellectual property without proper authorisation from the owner of the song. A lot of people do it but I cannot do such. The instrument I used in my song sounds nothing like what Sir Victor Uwaifo used in his.”

The singer seized the opportunity to apologise to Sir Victor Uwaifo, whom he said he regarded as a father asking him to understand. He mentioned that there were some artistes who had remixed his work without his permission but he chose to look the other way.

“The truth is that I am sorry if he feels that I used his song without his permission. He is our father and I cannot disrespect him. I would be so silly to think of disrespecting someone like Sir Victor Uwaifo, who has been inspiring us since we were kids. In all the interviews that I had granted, I had given him credit for the song but we are talking about the title of the song and not its content. Small Doctor just released a song titled ‘This Year’, am I going to fight him because of the title of the song? Dammy Krane released a song titled ‘Amin’ which is a different version of my song, ‘This Year; Tim Godfrey released a song titled, ‘This Year’, which is like a proper remix of my song. Dammy Krane and Tim Godfrey took about 60 per cent of my song to make theirs. In my own case, we are talking about the title of the song alone, in fact, the titles do not sound the same when you pronounce them. But like I said, I still have to give props to people that deserve it and there is no way I would talk about Joromi without remembering Sir Victor Uwaifo. The reason I did not give due credit to him is that the songs are not the same, they just have similar titles,” he said.

These kinds of conflicts are seldom resolved peacefully with uncontrolled emotions. Very level heads are required for success.

nduchucks:
The above is a definition of conflict. I am convinced that deep down in you is a penchant for peaceful conflict resolution.

Omoluabis are known for finding a way where there seems to be no other way but violence.

There will be no winners if you remain stubborn.

I feel for you man and sorry for what you must be going thru. However, i agree herds should not in open grazing. If one is interested in herding animals, the only option should be in 'ranches'. But i dont support the restriction thru kogi state.

Your teacher lied to you. Yoruba area was ravished by inter tribal wars and BETRAYALS, causing even some to hide under big rocks.

But the truth is, most of those towns from those days, are still covered in the brown roofs till date.

See, most of these idiots that are always talking nonsense about how seaports in the ND are not working have never been to the port before or even involved on shipping business. But they just love repeating the lie cos it fits their narrative. The Lagos excuse is stale already. Please come up with a better excuse. Thanks

nonut:
See what I'm talking about? Your people were the ones who gossiped about her till she left, but you conveniently left them out.
The reason why the Ooni was forced to divorce her was because she wasn't a yoruba woman. That's the simple truth. Stop beating around the bush.
The thing you guys are accusing us of, is the same thing you did when Ooni took that lady as his wife.
Say no to hypocrisy.

you think igbos are foolish, if they hate you,that is final,pmb is an error,in 2019 you will see.the southeast are known for giving a bloc vote alongside the north,the southwest always give a divided vote due to their sophistication and Chris mus nature.pmb won't know what hit him in 2019,i think he is aware which is the reason for his recent tour of the southeast.but we know better,this time he won't smell 5 percent.if kwankwaso declares and team up with any southerner,pmb will either go to London or Daura

Pierohandsome:
that is not the point of the arguement, the argument is that those ports aren't accessible to an average importer because of the political coup staged against those region. Yes , the leaders of those regions are complicite in this crime, bt that doesnt nullify the fact that there is politics to underdevelope those regions

Pierohandsome:
bro those people u see clearing goods consistently thru Onne port have been granted import waivers maybe as political compensation, or Frndship connection to the powers that be. No neutral importer can use onne port and not run at a loss, the clearance tarrif is almst double compare to that of Lagos and these are hatched plan and politics by the federal majority to undermine the region. Most ppl dnt knw this, bt that is the hidden truth u are getting to knw now.

Amberon11:
This is very true. The funny thing is they assume everyone who points out this obvious fact is Igbo...
Mtcheeew.

Amberon11:
All airlines cannot land in every airport? Is that an excuse? That is a generic statement which holds no water. Its like saying Tuesday is a day of the week when everyone knows Tuesday is a day of the week. You must think everyone is as dumb as you. How can major airlines land in PH if it is not upgraded?

Dude , even Onne port is too shallow for large vessels to berth and most countries do not have it as one of their destinations obviously because it also hasn't been upgraded to that status. There are several other embargoes too (however not in writing). Pls ask anyone who is particularly a freight forwarder.

I'm guessing you stated the bolded because you thought I was Igbo, right? Lol

Amberon11:
You're just very foolish. So how are they lazy?
For pointing out obvious facts? Why not make the argument about Qatar airways and Turkish airways? Why don't they land in PHC? Why just Lagos? That is to tell you that OMAGWA does not fully have the international status befitting of an international airport.
In the same vein the seaports in PHC do not fully meet the criteria needed for an international seaport. They are shallow and hence large vessels cannot berth there. These are all properly planned to make by the government to make sure everything comes in through Lagos.

If you know nothing about shipping ask a freight forwarder who works/worked in PH so you don't go displacing your arrogant ignorance.

dammiecool:
U guyz should keep shifting goal post, before now u people said they r not using d port, now it's too shallow, next is its not on destination list I ll advice u to come down to onne I promise to take u round n see vessels bringing in thousands of containers

Customs mulls plan for 24 hours Cargo Clearance at Onne NWAFOR POLYCARP / 21 JUN 2017 / By Godwin Oritse

In a bid to enhance and facilitate cargo clearance at the Onne port, the Port Harcourt Area 11 command of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, in Onne, Rivers state, has commenced moves to operate on a 24 hour basis.

Disclosing this to newsmen in Port Harcourt, the command’s Area Controller, Abubakar Bashir said, that 24 hours cargo clearance is feasible at Onne seaport, adding that prompt clearance of cargo at the seaport is needed to beef up revenue generation for the Federal Government of Nigeria.

Bashir explained that on assumption of office, the command’s management collectively assessed and appraised documentation and clearance procedures of cargo clearance at the port and some challenges were identified.

He said: “The identified challenges prompted me to embark on a holistic and integrated maritime, oil and gas stakeholders forum aimed at facilitating trade and providing lasting solution with a view to achieving 24 hours cargo clearance at Onne seaport in line with the directives of the Comptroller General of Customs, Col. Hameed Ali (Rtd).

“Customs as a critical stakeholder in accordance with our statutory responsibilities is duty bound to ease and fast-track cargo documentation and cargo clearance at the port.”

He urged all stakeholders to be patient and transparency in declarations and classifications during cargo clearance at the port.

“We all have to show patriotism and forthrightness in our various documentation and cargo clearance procedure in line with international standard and best practices” https://www.google.com/amp/s/

Export, import activities at Onne command, rises, says Customs / NWAFOR POLYCARP / 19 JUN 2017
ONNE —Facts have emerged that the revenue profile of the Nigeria Customs Service, Onne command is presently experiencing tremendous increase through import and export duties on goods.

President Importers Association of Nigeria (IMAN), Dr. Ralph John dropped this hint yesterday in Abuja during an interaction with a cross section of the media where he stated that as a result of the strict compliance to the guideline on import and export documentation of goods, Onne port, has witnessed a brilliant increase in import and export of goods.

According to him contrary to the claim by some port users that timber products were being moved Overseas through Onne port without proper documentation, John explained that timber is now one of the major export goods that has been raising the revenue of the Nigeria Customs Service Onne port.

“Documents for timber export are now passing through strict Scrutiny as exporters of such goods were strictly complying to guidelines by obtaining temporary certificate of Inspection (TCI) and other necessary documents through the various government Agencies concerned with export goods including Ministry of Environment before such goods can be allowed for export”, he said.

He further explained that the crop of custom officers heading various units and departments were revenue officers who believe on total compliance to the import and export guideline of the Government in line with the transformation Agenda of the present Custom leadership.

John disclosed that exporters are now made to obtain clean certificate of Inspection (CCI) from Neroli Technologies Limited, a private Inspection Agency contracted by the Federal Government to issue certificate, before timber products are being exported to overseas which was not the case before.

On imported items John who is also President Maritime Energy Media Practitioners of Nigeria (MEMPON) disclosed that imported items were now witnessing thorogh examination at the port before being allows to be cleared by the importers and customs Agents.

The Area Controller of the port Comptroller Abubakar Bashiru had earlier told the heads of Customs formations and units of Federal Ocean Terminal Gate that goods passing through Onne port should be strictly scrutinized by officers to block every revenue leakages, he stated.

Amberon11:
I beg you, say what you know too. My sister has worked with 3 shipping companies, 2 in PH and one in Lag and from what she and her colleagues have seen, it is all embargo. That few people you know have imported through PH doesn't negate the fact that most countries don't even have PH on their list of destinations. And PH seaports are too shallow for large vessels to berth there.

Sadly for you, there's a clear difference between wanting biafra and promoting hatred, bigotry, abusing and insulting other people, issuing and supporting terrorist threats.

Don't mind these lazy set of posters simple research they can't do
That's how one of them was arguing that Lufthansa can't land in PHC airport .

udemzyudex:
There is something you don't understand and I'm going to explain it to you.

A business man import his goods through a seaport in the east, it took him over 3months to clear his goods while he has cleared and even ordered for another one through Lagos seaport.

Now tell me, will you want to import through the one that takes you over 3months to one clear your goods?

You should ask yourself if those seaport you mentioned are working and why are they not working?
