The Performing Musicians Employers’ Association of Nigeria (PMAN) is the only registered Trade Union in Nigeria that relates to creativity and entertainment in Nigeria.

PMAN was set up as the regulator for these industries. However in the over 32 years of PMAN’s existence, its focus has only been limited to Music and Musicians.

This changed about 3 years ago when Mr. Pretty Okafor the current elected president and his executives stepped in. Several anomalies were detected in the way the union was being run from inception but presently a sense of calm and normalcy is returning to the union with the backing of the Federal Government of Nigeria through its Ministry Of Information And Culture. From the Caretaker Committee to run the affairs of the Union and conduct credible elections, Pretty Okafor was elected unopposed and emerged President of the Performing Musicians Employers’ Association of Nigeria for the next 4 years along with his executives which include Sunny Neji, Tolu Obey, Felix Duke, Zaaky Azzay, Rugged Man, Asha Gangali, Tuface Idibia, Olu Maintain. These are popular, competent and reputable people who have been involved in the music business for years either as musicians or industry practitioners.
