Our History

TV Production

The Independent Television Producers Association of Nigeria (ITPAN) was registered in 1992, with its first annual general meeting held at the National Theatre, Lagos on November 29, 1993. Our foundation executives were led by Elder Steve Rhodes as president, alongside other founding fathers including Chief T. Oleyede and Alex Oduro.

Between 1993 and 1998, ITPAN established structures to strengthen and consolidate our organization as a nationwide professional body relevant to producers' needs. We initiated contacts and created goodwill with government and other professional bodies to ensure Nigerian producers and production professionals were accorded respect, opportunities, and an enabling environment to practice.
