Kennis Music drags Kelly Handsome to court

Kennis Music has threatened to press charges against Kelly
Hansome if the singer 'doesn't cease to propagate false stories
about the label and its CEO while at the same time, failing to
honour his contractual obligations to the Label.'
In a document made available to e-Punch this week
by Adebayo & Adebayo Legal Practitioners, solicitors
to Kennis Music, the label insists that Hansome 'has
not discharged his obligations to our company under
the contractual agreement and to this end, cannot be
signed on by any other label.'
Kelly Hansome, popular for his hit single, Maga don
Pay, had taken to the internet these past weeks,
posting disclaimers on Kennis, and informing
everyone he was through with the label.
But A&R manager at Kennis, Godwin Ndidi, assures e-
Punch. 'We still have a subsisting contract with him.
And if he's serious about moving, he should come
and sit down and negotiate his exit.'
'I won't say more than that, because our lawyers are already
handling the matter.'
Keke Ogungbe tells e-Punch he has 'no comments. Our lawyer is
fully in charge,' he told us over the phone, Tuesday.
"Our client shall not hesitate to enforce her rights under the said
contractual agreement in the event of continuous breach of same
by the artiste or any record label that signs him on,' Dayo
Adebayo, the label's lawyer said.
Hansome, who is believed to be hibernating in Owerri, did not
respond to our enquiries.
