The emergence of a breakaway faction from the Yoruba movie industry, Theatre Arts & Movie Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), may have put the embattled Association of Theatre Arts Practitioners of Nigeria ANTP in the rubbish of history.
TAMAPAN, the new association which emerged on Sunday after about six hours of crucial meetings in Ikorodu, Lagos among major stakeholders in the industry, predictably is enjoying the consent of major marketers and distributors in Idumota, leading directors and producers.
When the meeting resumed, Adebayo Salami and Jide Kosoko, both past Presidents of ANTP, used their veto powers to set up a National Working Committee (NWC) charged with the responsibilities to among other functions, register the newly formed and adopted association with the Corporate Affairs Commission.
The list of members in the various state’s and National Working Committees of the yet to be registered association is trending on whatsapp and blackberry.
In LAGOS STATE, the following have been appointed -Dele Ayobiojo, Rasaq Aberuagba, Debo Alexandra, Taofeek Azeez, Funmbi Akinduro.
