“The song is mine, it has been mine for many years. In fact, I have had an encounter with the evangelist and he told me that I can’t do anything to him because I don’t have anybody to help me, but I have the document to show anyone who will be willing to help me.”
“He said it in presence of my lawyer; he didn’t know he was a lawyer. I am the originator so any compensation they want to give, they should give it to me,” he said
Meanwhile, Evangelist Anning has dismissed the allegations and noted that he has enough people and enough evidence to back his claim as the true owner and composer of the song.
