I mean it’s not right , its a big offence for using someone’s intellectual property without the person’s knowledge and I believe that NPP is a big party which understands all these terminologies so I’m hoping for the right thing to be done,” Patience Nyarko stated.
Patience has strongly warned the party to desist from using her song for campaign or she will sue them. Since it is her intellectual property, she expects to get paid.
