The Copyright Tribunal has dismissed a copyright infringement claim against Kenyan music group Matata regarding their hit song “Mpishi (Aiyaya)”. The Tribunal ruled that the song does not infringe on music producer Kelvin Njogu Murimi, also known as DJ Keville's, “Bum Dum Riddim,” allowing both derivative works to coexist.

• DJ Keville was directed to withdraw a YouTube takedown notice within 48 hours.
• The Tribunal, chaired by Elizabeth Lenjo, found no satisfactory evidence of infringement or access to DJ Keville’s work by Matata.
• DJ Keville had sought Sh1.8 million in damages and is now barred from filing further copyright claims against “Mpishi (Aiyaya)”.
