Wizkid Finally Port From MTN to Glo

Image
Our number one superstarboy, Wizkid has decided to go green after following the yellow big road for like 2 years now. Since the wave of endorsement deals and the industry’s star acts, the likes of Davido, Don Jazzy, Chidinma, Praiz, Iyanya and Tiwa Savage have remained under the brand ambassadorship of big telecommunications giant, MTN. While news filtered in that Sean Tizzle and Timaya had been dropped, we keenly awaited the fate of the  lungu crooner. In an unexpected yet twistful plot, Wizkid hitch-hiked a ride with Glo’s wagon to pitch his tent alongside star acts like Flavour, P-Square, Omawumi, Waje, Chee, Lynxxx, Bez, MI and Naeto -C. His deal is said to be worth N120million… obviously more than what rival company, MTN was offering. Wow! Too Much Money... 

Why We Dropped Wizkid, Sean Tizzle, Timaya As Brand Ambassadors – MTN

Image
In a statement signed by MTN’s General Manager, Consumer Marketing, Richard Iweanoge confirmed Wizkid, D’Prince, Timaya and Sean Tizzle won’t be ambassadors of the telecom this year and explains why. ‘Although there is a finite number of brand ambassadors we can have at any point in time, Nigerian artistes can continue to monetise their intellectual works through our distribution channels such as the Caller Tunez and Music Plus platforms,’ the statement states. The statement reads further: ‘As was originally conceptualised, the ambassador ship will continually evolve to accommodate new talents and cater for diverse segments. This year, we are using a segmented approach and there will be ambassadors for each segment of our market. Using this criteria, new artistes like Cobhams Asuquo will be coming on board the MTN Ambassadorial family.’ In May 2015, stars including Davido, Don Jazzy, Tiwa Savage, Dr. Sid, Sound Sultan, Iyanya, Chidinma, Banky W, KCee as well as Saka, Osuofia,

Kashamu: Court nullifies arrest warrant, overrules extradition proceedings

Image
Read the press statement below.. A Federal High Court in Lagos has overruled the provisional warrant of arrest secured by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency seeking to extradite the Ogun East senator-elect, Mr. Buruji Kashamu, to the United States to face alleged drug trafficking charges. The court equally made an order halting the extradition further proceedings in an application filed by the NDLEA before the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court on Kashamu. Kashamu, on Monday through his lawyers, Dr. Alex Izinyon (SAN) and Mr. Ajibola Oluyede, secured separate orders from both Justices Okon Abang and Ibrahim Buba of the Lagos Division of the court. While Abang quashed the extradition proceedings and the provisional warrant of arrest issued by another judge of the Federal High Court, Buba restrained the NDLEA from arresting and arraigning Kashamu in furtherance of the extradition charges. Oluyede had on Monday appeared before Buba with a fresh application seeking an o
