Artiste Managers’ Association in Nigeria, (AMAN),
has announced the engagement of Tosin Adefope and Victoria Okere as their legal
adviser and consultant respectively. We reliably gathered that the move will
help AMAN in realizing the dreams of its founding fathers. The engagement of the
two international experts, our source reveals, is in tandem with their
determination in taking their proper place in the Nigerian entertainment
industry.
According to the president of the association, Mr.
Collins Ifeanyi Onwuneme Ajereh Enebeli a.k.a Mavin GrandPa,
“Adefope
is an International lawyer with an array of qualifications and experience in
the legal field. She has a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from the prestigious Law
school of the University Of Warwick, United Kingdom. (Alma Mata of Former
United States President) Bill Clinton. Master of Laws (LLM) from the highly
popular University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), USA where she specialized
in Entertainment Law and Intellectual Property.”
Victoria Okere on the other hand is a graduate of
English from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife. She served at Ondo
State-owned printing press as a proof reader before moving to the prestigious
celebrity soft sell magazine, City People as an Advert Executive and then on to
TULSA printing press the biggest printing press in Nigeria at that time, as a
Client Services Executive.
She then relocated in 2001 to the Republic of
Ireland where she furthered her education opting for nursing thereby fulfilling
a childhood love of caring for people which has metamorphosed into Vickie
Robert Hospitality for Celebrities which was borne out of her observing the
vacuum in the African entertainment industry hospitality wise.
