Sarkozi took to social media to bash him.
Daddy Owen you need to give me credit for Wewe ni Mungu. I wrote the song, you excluded me from the credits and did not pay me. You also gave credit to Pitson for writing Vanity yet I’m the one who wrote it. Pitson only finished the last bit,' he said in a video.
In another post he begged the Kenyan superstar to pay him.
Owen nipe haki yangu,' he wrote.
