The Grammy
Award-winning singer, Tim Kubart and his band, the Space Cadets, are
gearing up to bring their live music charm to Lagos on Thursday,
April 26, at a concert organized by U.S. Mission Nigeria marking
World Intellectual Property Day.
Also joining the
Grammy Award-winning band are popular Nigerian artists including
Iyanya, Bisola Aiyeola, and Jeff Akoh.
Organized by U.S.
Mission Nigeria, in collaboration with leading talent agency and
event firm, Temple Management Company (TMC), the night of music, fun,
and enlightenment is scheduled to hold at Freedom Park, Lagos,
Thursday, April 26, at 7:00pm.
“This concert
highlights the creative energy of Nigerian and American artists,”
said U.S. Ambassador W. Stuart Symington. “On World Intellectual
Property Day, it also recognizes the importance of copyright in
encouraging creative expression. Legal protections incentivize
people to produce and share the work that contributes to our
countries’ cultural and economic power.”
In his remarks,
Terfa Tilley-Gyado, Director of Communication, TMC, said “It is an
honour to work with the U.S. Embassy on this important project. This
is the second time we are collaborating with the U.S. Mission in
Nigeria and we promise a very fun night.”
The concert will be
open to all members of the public and is billed to start at 7:00pm at
Freedom Park, Lagos. The Public is invited to share, on their social
media platforms, their thoughts on intellectual property rights (IPR)
using the hashtags: #RespectNaijaCreativity and #WorldIPDay
