If you are regular viewer of African Independent Television (AIT), you must have come across a Yoruba movie titled Atupa Emi, written and produced by Temitope Oluwa.
The producer of the movie has filed a lawsuit against the popular Television station for airing her movie without securing proper authorization.
According to naijagist, The actress filed the whopping N5 million lawsuit with the help of her attorney, MA Bashua & Co. in November 2012 but AIT refused to respond.
