It was reported that the song, owned by Brown Joel and featuring Davido, Boypee, and Hyce, had been pulled from the video streaming platform.
Shortly after the rumors went viral, an X page published a post saying that one of the singer, Boypee, had given an interview in which he stated that the song was removed because Davido wanted all of the royalties.
Shortly after the X page mage allegations about Boypee, the musician moved to his X page to promptly put it down.
The Ogechi star questioned when he had made such a remarks. He then questioned the poster what they would gain by taking him down.
He wrote: “You and who talk that one ? To what profit eh guy? Wetin you wan use my downfall do?”
Boypee’s reaction to the apparent copyright issues around the Ogechi Remix sparked curiosity among Nigerians, who shared their thoughts online.
Some accused Davido of attempting to defraud the legitimate owner of the music, while others defended OBO.
