I Have Proof That Burna Boy’s Team Stole My Design – Omonigho Imonah

Fashion illustrator, Omonigho Imonah has come out to blast Burna Boy’s team for using her designs for one of his videos.

Imonah recently revealed that her designs were used without acknowledging or giving her credit, and she has receipts to support her claim.

According to her, it all started when she reached out to Burna’s mother last year, got directed to Burna’s sister who is a stylist, Ronami Ogulu, but Ronami ignored her.

Omonigho added that she thought that was the end of it only for her to see one of the designs had been created for use in one of Burna’s music videos without her permission.

See what she shared,

WOW.
