Tuface’s camp released a press statement two days ago,
stating that an upcoming artiste stole his song and yet tried to use his image
(right above) to sell her records. They threatened to sue her, and wanted
bloggers to help inform the society about the fraudulent act.
But the soft spoken lady, Ewa, after the press statement
went viral through her representative admitted to an online publication that she stole the song and Tuface
was never in the studio with her. She went ahead to also reveal that
the part were his voice was actually heard was fixed in by her producer.

Below is the press statement released by them before the

We wish to use this medium to categorically state that 2Face
did not feature in any song composed and sang by any Ewa. The song is an
illegal manipulation and super-imposition on 2Face’s unreleased song titled
“Could This Be Love”. This odious and fraudulent act is not only condemnable
but also an assault to the integrity of the entertainment industry which
thrives on creativity and hard work.
