(C) 2024

His full name; Oluwadamilola David Ikuepamitan.
Nationality: Nigerian
Place of birth: Lagos State
Language: English & Yoruba
Career: Model (international)

David Ikuepamitan made a small and humble entrance into life - he was born & bred in Lagos Mainland (Ejigbo) - but thanks to his break-out debut on Gucci Exclusive Mens FW'23 (at the age of 20), he's currently in charge of his career in the modeling industry.

He was discovered & developed by a Nigerian mother agency (ABULAD Model Agency). ABULAD Model Management was founded in 2021 by three cool cats (Hakeem “Mavin’ Fowomola, Rashyd Musa and Afolabi Abdulrasheed). The platform was established in Lagos, Nigeria with a desire to bring something unique and radical – setting the bar high within the fashion industry and a benchmark for other independent agencies to follow. The agency representing both boys and girls has registered over 70 models so far—both local and international—and we work with over 100 international modeling agencies.

List of Model Agencies in Nigeria.


THE MOTHER AGENCIES:
According to industry standards, a mother agency is the first agency you work with when you begin your modeling career.

A mother agent can also be a scout who discovered you, developed you into an established model and helped you get your start. As you become more established as a model, you will most likely be signed by and placed at multiple agencies in different cities, both nationally and internationally. Therefore, it is beneficial to have one main agent “the mother agent” that acts principally as your manager and coordinates with your other agencies.
Nigerian Mother Agents: These are a network of agencies (quietly) operating around Nigeria to scout the next "star" models and boost diversity in local and international fashion capitals. Over 70+ mother agencies in Africa entirely are now taking over the international scene.
