THE SABC has intensified the Summer Song of the Year campaign, also known as Ingoma Ehlukanisa Unyaka.
This is despite the fact that Owen Ndlovu served the broadcaster with a letter, demanding it stop the campaign.
Part of Ndlovu’s letter stated: “The SABC has unlawfully reproduced and continues to unlawfully reproduce a substantial part of or make adaptations of the song of the year/summer song through the ingoma project.”
In terms of the letter, the concept of Ingoma Ehlukanisa Unyaka, as it is now called, is owned by Owen Ndlovu and not by SABC, which has infringed on the Copyright Act.
