Fast rising act, Runtown has been dragged to court by his record lable Ericmany. The full press release from EricMany states:
A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has slammed an injunction against the rising musical artiste Douglas Jack-Agu aka “Runtown“.
The injunction prevents him from performing at any event or any form of
recording for the time being unless with the approval of Ericmany Limited.
Runtown is signed under the Ericmany Entertainment label that presently holds the copyright to all his music. He was sued in the Federal High Court by Ericmany on allegations that he signs up, concludes and attends musical shows without the knowledge of the label.
Ericmany Entertainment was said to
have invested millions of naira on Runtown. However trouble started when
Runtown apparently with the connivance of Bug Mediaran
by one Bugwu Aneto began to sideline Ericmany and collected money
directly for shows without the knowledge of Ericmany. Bug Media is also a
party to the court case.
In another twist of events, the management of Ericmany has sacked the said Bugwu Aneto as General Manager of the company for infractions which might not be unconnected with his alleged connivance with Runtown to shortchange the Label Ericamany.
Our reporter learnt that all
inquiries about the artiste and bookings for shows would no longer be
through Aneto but through the management of Ericmany.
It is not clear how the young artiste is reacting to the court case and injunction. Observers suggest he was misled by Bugwu, the former General Manager of Ericmany to ditch his boss and benefactor Ericmany, and may now that the chips are down find ways to go back and reconcile with the Ericmany.
See below copies of the court injunction served to him:
