The Musical Copyright Society Nigeria Limited (MCSN) has opened its regional office in Ibadan to serve Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti states.
The office has already started with an intensive training session for the newly recruited staff of the society.
The training sessions are being undertaken by the Chief Executive Officer of the Society, Mr. Mayo Ayilaran and other experienced and top brains in copyright administration who are expected to take the new staff through a rigorous training regime that will cover all aspects of copyright administration, especially licensing and enforcement.
With the commencement of operations, hoteliers, broadcasters and others who require the use of music in their business in Ibadan and environs will no longer have to travel to the headquarters of MCSN in Lagos before having their licensing requirements met.
