- The implementation of two per cent levy on mobile phones, computers, photocopiers, scanners and similar products will commence soon, the Director-General, National Copyright Commission, Mr. Afam Ezekude, has said.
- Ezekude said this at a press briefing to mark the 2015 World Book and Copyright Day in Abuja on Thursday. He said the order for the levy had been put into a gazette, adding that the only thing that remained was a nod for its implementation from the Minister of Finance.
- The levy order is applicable to all imported or locally produced materials used or capable of being used to infringe copyright in a work both imported and manufactured in the country, and it is designed to compensate the right owners for the envisaged infringement.
- The NCC boss said, “The copyright levy on particular materials order has not been abandoned. It places a levy on any material either manufactured locally or coming into the country from outside.
