Gospel artist, Mercy Chinwo, has filed a suit against hip-hop artist Obidiz for defamation of character and unauthorized use of name and image.

Mercy Chinwo filed a case against Obidiz following his latest single release titled Mercy Chinwo.

The artist in the song cited an example of a wayward, club girl, and mentioned Mercy Chinwo in the phrase.

“She dey share me the cake, but she no want commit. Mercy Chinwo for church, but for club na Cardi B sef.”

The suit by the gospel artist said Obidiz made “Derogatory and defamatory use of the name and image of Mercy Chinwo in secular music audio and video” and issued a “Notice to cease and desist.”

According to the document, Obidiz is to desist from further use of Mercy Chinwo’s name and image.

He is also to take down the song, and promotional videos and make a public apology. Failure to comply with these demands may attract a fine of N2,000,000,000.

2 billion?😂

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.

Wahala 🙆😂😂😂

Where obidiz wan see 2 billion like dis

Lol, mercy chinwo is not really a woman of knowledge

Ok, noted.

2billion? mercy no wan sing again, she wan join the billionaire cliq, she wanna roll with the likes of Dangote, Femi, and co

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.

What happened to turning the other cheek?

2 billion, man hasn't even made up to a million in his music career, and he's been sued for 2 billy. Anyhow, he should just redo the song, take that part out, and apologize, he shouldn't let pride get the better of him.

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

Wahala

Big opportunity to chop the mugu

Good!

Funny suit

Right about time.

That law Corridor(The Attorney) Guy behaves like Festus Keyamo. He’s a close ally of Sowore and Deji.

Always looking for famous cases so as to get clout and his name on the front pages of newspapers for future purposes in the political space.

Lawyers always have a 3rd eye in Nigerian Politics.
