Apparently, Danny had entered a complaint to the video streaming website for lyrics theft which led to the suspension of the song in January.

The suit is against Tiwa and Mavins Records for unauthorised use of lyrical content in her song ‘One‘ from Danny’s 2009 single “Oju Tiwon”. The 200 million attached to the suit is claimed to be for damages.
