Ghanaian entertainer and self-acclaimed Amapiano king DJ Azonto has issued a list of staggering demands after accusing rapper Medikal, dancehall artiste Shatta Wale, and producer Beatztrap KOTM of using his signature catchphrase "Alla" in their newly released song "Shoulder" without permission.

DJ Azonto's manager and PRO for the Rolls-Royce Family, signed a statement explaining that "Alla' which forms part of his well-known slogan "Alla Wayo" was used without persmission.

They believe it's wrong because the term has become a big part of his image, performances and connection with fans.

"As such, DJ Azonto is demanding $100million cash, a fully activated diplomatic Passport for his mother, 10 Diamond Chains, three brand new Rolls Royce (for his daughters), 90% ownership stake on Shaxi, beach house in Miami and a public apology and acknowledgment of DJ Azonto as the original creator and campaigner of the "Alla" movement," the statement read.

The letter further said that Medikal and his team should be prepared to appear in court if they fail to meet DJ Azonto's demands.

"If these demands are not met, we will not hesitate to take full legal action against all parties at the court.

"We have repeatedly advised all creatives that intellectual property is not for free use, especially in an industry where only our identity and originality are the cornerstones of success," the statement ended.

Nigerian actress and filmmaker Bimbo Ademoye also took to social media months ago to express frustration over what she described as a blatant violation of her intellectual property rights.

According to her, several TV stations in Ghana have been airing her work without permission—a situation she finds unacceptable and unlawful. She called on relevant authorities to investigate and address the matter promptly.

Her post, which tagged both Sam George and Kafui Danku, gained significant traction online, drawing widespread reactions from the public. While many supported her demand for justice, others questioned her claims.

Among the critics was Ghanaian media personality and plus-size advocate Miz Debbie, who argued in a video response that the broadcast of Bimbo’s films in Ghana amounted to free publicity. She dismissed Bimbo’s concerns as an attempt to chase clout and gain more visibility for her movies.

Bimbo swiftly reacted by resharing Miz Debbie’s video and reiterating her call for official action. She maintained that the situation should not be trivialised, describing Miz Debbie’s position as “defending theft.”

Responding directly under Bimbo’s post, Kafui Danku assured her that steps were being taken to halt the unauthorised broadcasts. “Hi ma’am, my management and I are working on putting a stop to this. You should see definite actions in a couple of weeks,” she wrote.

Sam George also addressed the issue, confirming that he had taken note of Bimbo’s complaint and would engage his colleague responsible for overseeing television content. He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to upholding intellectual property rights and ensuring that such violations are addressed.

“My attention has been drawn to your post thanks to the tag. I would be raising the issue with my colleague minister responsible for overseeing television content. However, I wish to assure you that our government is very respectful of intellectual property rights and will ensure the protection of same,” he stated.

Both officials' responses signal a willingness to strengthen protections for content creators and foster continued collaboration between Ghana and Nigeria’s creative industries.
