Speaking on what led to the protest, AVRS boss, Alli-Balogun, said the hospitality outfit had refused to pay for use of the entertainer’s intellectual properties.

He added that negotiations with the management of the hotel had met brick walls, hence they were forced to hit the street in protest.

Further, Alli-Balogun said that the hotel is owing the copyright collective society about N50 million
