Brainjotter sends Mike Ejeagba N2m

According to a screenshot shared on social media by Brainjotter, the skit maker has sent the veteran singer N2m as compensation for using his song.

However, some have reacted, noting that Brainjotter's N2m is too small and doesn't justify using Mike Ejeagba's song without his consent.

In the trending clip, the 94-year-old singer is spotted using walking aids because he can no longer move freely.

The Gwo Gwo Ngwo dance challenge has been trending on social media for some days, and Legit.ng recalls reporting when Super Falcons striker Asisat Oshoala jumped on it.

Over the years, Brainjotter has become famous for being a comic and for some of his philanthropic activities.

Legit.ng recalls when the skit maker helped pay for the surgery of a woman suffering from skin ulcers.
