D’banj, Kelly Hansome in faceoff over copyright infringement

All is not well between the Koko master, D'banj and Mr Maga, Kelly Hansome.
 The bone of contention is D'banj's song I'm Feeling Good released on the internet. Both of them may soon head for the court room if all efforts to make Hansome withdraw a remix version of the song fail.
D'banjs music label, Mo Hits Record Media Company, Mo Hits in a statement alleged that the song was leaked in the process of recording and it finally found its way into Hansoms hands who quickly did a remix version. It shows how slippery the nations entertainment sector is, Dbanjs publicist said.
The statement further read: Do take notice that Mo'Hits Records Limited is the lawful owner of rights to the recorded material, I'm Feeling Good, being touted by one Kelechi Obinna Orji a.k.a. Kelly Hansome or persons acting for him.
Mo Hits Records Limited has not granted the said rights to Mr. Hansome or to anyone else.
Mr. Hansome's possession and offering of the material at issue is unauthorized, unjustified, inexcusable and downright illegal; the subject of current civil and criminal proceedings.
Hansome through his lawyer had, however, denied any wrong doing. If that position does not change, Mo Hits will be left with no choice than to seek redress in the law court but in the intermission, any third party that does not want to be dragged into this litigation should desist from promoting the work in any form, the statement warned.
All effort to get Kelly Hansome's side of the story proved abortive as his phone line kept ringing with no response.
