Timi Dakolo has responded to Majek Fashek’s claim that the Wish Me Well singer remade his hit song Send Down the Rain in 2013 without permission.

In an interview with PUNCH’s Saturday Beats Majek Fashek said, “He (Dakolo) broke the rules of copyright.

He is a thief because in music business, he must take permission before he works on someone’s song. That is why we have COSON. I did not give anyone the right to do anything with my song.

Dakolo, who responded via Instagram, said, “My people, it saddens me to see such. I always try to do things rightly and lawfully.

“I paid his manager to remake the song, I got my invoice, I even mentioned to him during our rehearsals at the Headies. So, honestly I don’t understand this write-up.

“Oga Majek Fashek. I respect and love you. Your voice gives life to lyrics. You are one of the best musicians I know. God bless you.”
