- W3197611308 abstract "The essence of Collective Management Organization (CMO)) is to have a body that manages and protects the collective copyright of its member. It cannot be overemphasized that to function as such, a CMO should have a level of control over the copyright in its repertoire, including the locus standi to sue for infringement of these rights. It is settled position that a CMO that has the approval of the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) as required by Copyright Act can sue for infringement of the rights in its repertoire, however the position with unapproved CMO in copyright discourse has been controversial as it has been unsettled for a long time. Although, there was legislative intervention through the amendment of Copyright Act by the introduction of S 15B (now S 17), the issue was not brought to rest as there were continued conflicting decisions of courts at different levels on the issue. In 2018, the Supreme Court took the same position in its two decisions on the issue in what seems to be an end to this conundrum. This review critically examines these two decisions of the Supreme Court on the issue of locus standi of unapproved CMO. It draws strength from the interpretation of relevant provisions of Copyright Act using the rules of statutory interpretation. It also adopts a historical approach in the interpretation of the relevant provisions of the Copyright Act with the aim of ascertaining the intention of the legislature in the 1999 amendment of Copyright Act which introduced the requirement of approval by NCC for CMOs in Nigeria." @default.
