Ebenezer Obey Fabiyi has been appointed as the new chairman of the newly inaugurated COSON Advisory board. The 70-year-old was elected at the 2nd  Annual General meeting of the association held at Eko FM Hall in Lagos on Tuesday, May 8,2012.

He was elected alongside  Prof. (Sir) Victor Uwaifo MON,Dr. Dan Maraya Jos MON, Ms. Onyeka Onwenu MFR,  Mr. Laolu Akins, Mr. Sunny Neji, Mr. Toju Ejueyitchie, Dr. Ben Ofoeze, Mr. Ossy Affason and Mr. Dayo Ogunyemi, who are also members of the board.

COSON says the members of the new elected  board were selected based on their special skills and experience as they will  serve  as an  important think tank for the parent body.

The newly re-elected chairman of the Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON), Tony Okoroji spoke extensively on the need for setting up the advisory body. According to him, ‘Copyright administration is such a complex undertaking that requires all meaningful contributions. Since the board cannot accommodate more than the stipulated number of eleven members, the board has deemed it proper to set up an Advisory Council which will be made up of seasoned minds and achievers from within and outside the society;  whom we believe have the right intellect to inject ideas that should help the board take COSON to our dream of being the Number one in  Africa. I wish to state here that we are still building the Advisory Council as more hands will be invited to come on board and I believe in no time, members of COSON will be singing a new song’.

The association has also added new executives  who have done well for themselves in the music industry to their list .  And they are  Banky W, Azeezat Allen, Baba Dee, Dr. Adewale Ayuba and Audu Maikori.

‘This is a wonderful initiative, it gives the society an opportunity to benefit from the wealth of knowledge of people who have distinguished themselves in the music business in Nigeria, I am excited as I know this will mean well for all who have the progress of COSON at heart’, Azeezat, one of the  newly elected board members said.

A total number of 11 members were  elected into the board, with few returning members such as Efe Omorogbe, Obi Asika, Joel Ajayi, John Udegbunam, and S. A. Agboola.
