Photographer drags TuFace, wife to court over wedding pictures
From Vanguard newspaper
Justice Mohammed Idris of the Federal High Court sitting in
Lagos has fixed October 16, 2013 for the commencement of trial in a N120
million copyright suit filed against popular music star, Innocent Idibia,
a.k.a. TuFace, his wife, Annie Idibia and their manager, Anthonio Anifite
over photographs allegedly taken at the recent traditional wedding of the
musician and his wife in Akwa Ibom State.
Abuja based photographer, Emmanuel Okolo, who is the plaintiff in
the suit alongside his studio, Papilonmexy filed suit against the
defendants.

He is asking for six reliefs, two of which include N100 million in
general damages and N20million in exemplary damages.
At the resumed hearing of the case yesterday, neither TuFace nor
his wife was represented in court. Anifite who is the second defendant was
however represented by his counsel, J.O Uttute. Meanwhile, a mild drama ensued
when the judge openly admonished Uttute after the latter claimed that he had
filed his defence when he had not done so.
The judge warned him not to come to this court again if he was not
prepared for the case. “You told me that you have filed your response,
but looking through here, there is nothing to that effect. And you are even
smiling. Do you think you are here to joke? Never come to this court again if
you are not prepared. You don’t even know when the case was filed and you are
not prepared for it,” said the judge.
Also, the plaintiff’s counsel, Habeeb Oredola
expressed worry over the defendants’ inability to appear before the court
or be represented by a counsel after they were served with the writs of
summon.
In the writ of summon, Okolo and his studio claimed they were
contracted by TuFace’s wife through a third party, identified as Ms Chineze
Anyaene to take photo shots at the traditional wedding held in Eket, Akwa Ibom
state in March, 2013.
The plaintiff said, he was reluctant at the beginning since the
offer was coming through a third party, but later accepted after he was
convinced that the offer was actually with the blessing of the first defendant.
Annie Idibia was said to have later contacted the photographer
after the wedding and demanded for the printing of 10 of the high resolution
pictures taken.
