Ghanaian artiste Worlasi has told Abeiku Santana on Okay FM that the National Democratic Congress is yet to pay him for infringing on his copyright prior to the 2020 elections.
Worlasi Langani, complained last year that the National Democratic Congress (NDC), had used his song without his permission.
Worlasi in a video posted on his Twitter handle asked the NDC pay to pay him for using his song ‘One Life’ for a documentary that was played at the launch of the party’s manifesto.
“NDC, you didn’t help me make my music. You did not help me in any way in my life for me to create good music. I am not part of your manifesto so please do the right thing. Make sure you make to me the necessary payments. Do what is right and start wiring the money,” he said in a video.
Rex Omar who is the Chairman of the Ghana Music Rights Organisation (GHAMRO) and also a spokesperson for the party’s creative arts issues, admitted that it was a copyright infringement, and promised that his party would compensate Worlasi for the infringement.
But Worlasi says after meeting the NDC a couple of times, they are yet to get to bring finality to the matter.
