A Nigerian man, Oladelemi Philip Olubakin, has threatened to sue the Nigerian Bar Association for illegally using his intellectual property after declaring it unacceptable.

He said that he did a painting of President Muhammadu Buhari in honour of his 75 birthday with the hope of presenting it to him during the NBA conference.

He further said that the painting was rejected but was shocked when he discovered that the rejected painting was presented to the President on his birthday without his authorisation.

In a Facebook post, he recounted his experience,

“So I did a painting of Buhari to present it to him personally during the NBA conference and was rejected and turned down that the President won’t receive such.

“I was later told to keep it in the NBA building till another time only to wake up one day and see online that the painting was being presented to him by the NBA without my authorisation, consent or knowledge as his 75th birthday present ?…and somebody said God doesn’t reward his people or doesn’t remember them…

“He doesn’t mind to turn away the wisdom of the wise to reach and bless his own…there’s this scripture about the stone that the builders rejected…you know the rest…oya na, wear your shoe let’s go to court.”

According to his profile, he is a Team Leader at Philip Olubakin.
