MCSN starts operation in Abuja

In line with its planned expansion programme, the Musical Copyright Society Nigeria Ltd/Gte (MCSN) has commenced operations in Abuja to take care of the interests of music creators and consumers in the capital territory and the surrounding states.

The office commenced operations with an intensive five-day induction course for the staff in the capital city on June 4, and the week-long induction course was handled by experienced experts in copyright law and administration to prepare the staff for their new assignment of copyright administration.

Other offices are slated to be opened in Ibadan, Kano, and Kaduna later in the year.

Speaking on the commencement of business in the Abuja office, the CEO of MCSN, Mayo Ayilaran, said it was the determination of the management to cover the whole federation so that creators and consumers of music will have the services of society at their doorsteps whenever they need its services.

“So that all artists, especially those represented by the Society, will have the maximum return on their creativity,” he added.

The official commissioning of the Abuja office will be done at a later date.
