How Young Global Talent Manager, Maurice Sokari, Is Revolutionising The Fashion & Modelling Industry In Africa

Set to launch a global talent management agency to promote and amplify Black voices from Nigeria and Africa onto the global stage.

In 2022, Essence profiled 90’s Models Management as one of the young agencies out of Nigeria that have gone on to earn international attention, recognising Hamaam Peleruwa, Nonso Ojukwu, and Feranmi Ajetomobi as exclusive models for the fashion house Prada.

In the same year, Models.com featured two of them,  Feranmi Ajetomobi and Nonso Ojukwu, on the “Hot List”, the global fashion database’s list of the hottest models in the world. The platform further wrote of Ojukwu thus; ‘Nonso is from Lagos, Nigeria. His ascent to the top of the modelling world began with his first runway exclusive at the Prada F/W 22 Men’s Show, followed up by a Dior Men Semi exclusive for the same season.

With these successes, the talents continue to take over the global stage, or in this case, runways, as just alongside their peers; Nonso has walked top shows like the Dior Pre-Fall 23 Show held in Egypt and the Valentino Haute Couture Spring 23, as well as F/W 23 shows for Valentino, Loewe, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Gucci, Zegna. Facilitating these is the 24-year-old founder and CEO of 90s Models, Maurice Sokari, who meticulously leads and guides these young talents on this career path and helps them achieve their dreams.

The impact of Sokari’s work as a Nigerian talent manager operating on the global fashion scene, alongside his peers in the industry, cannot be overemphasized as they continue to push the frontiers of modeling in Africa and change the narrative in global talent management from Lagos, Nigeria.
