Guinness, proud sponsor of
the Super Eagles in conjunction with the Lagos state government flagged off the
Super Eagles Victory tour. The day long activity in honour of the African
Champions, the Super Eagles and the AFCON trophy, started out at a
congratulatory reception held at the State House in Lagos after which, the Tour
continued in a procession amidst fanfare and excitement, with the Trophy on
display, on through major locations in the city. At every point of the journey,
the procession met with and was greeted by excited and cheering Fans who
expressed appreciation to Guinness for Bringing the Champions of Africa to
Lagos and the Trophy to Lagos.

The tour continued till the
Teslim Balogun stadium where the Eagles were hosted to a concert with some of
Nigeria’s best on stage. The Managing Director/Chief Executive of Guinness
Nigeria Plc Mr. Seni Adetu at the Stadium announced that the team would be
presented a total sum of $50,000 representing the earlier promised $5,000 for
each goal scored from the team’s 2nd match against Zambia. The MD
also mentioned that each member of the entire team including the technical crew
and staff would receive a year’s supply of Guinness products in varying
proportions
Performers at the Teslim
Balogun Stadium concert included Sound Sultan, Terry G, Mr Raw, Tu-face Idibia
and Kola Soul, amongst others.
Recall that Guinness
affirmed its support for the national team well ahead of the 2013 AFCON
tournament and remained steadfast in its resolve to galvanize support for the
Eagles. The Guinness Fly with the Eagles campaign offered 200 lucky Nigerians
the opportunity to visit South Africa and to cheer the Eagles on to victory.
The brand went ahead to make a clarion call to over 160 million fans to come
out and sign their goodwill message to the Super Eagles with the production of the
world’s largest jersey, which went on display in two key cities in Nigeria.
Guinness in its drive to ensure Nigerians watched all the matches live,
established open fan parks for football lovers. With the victory of the Eagles
and the arrival of the cup in Nigeria, the Guinness brand has once again
demonstrated its passion for the game by organizing the victory tour & celebration.

Nice one Guinness, good platform to advertise your brand, my brand too. Hehe.. Congrats to our Super eagles again.
I don't want to put a damper on things but the stadium and the streets looks a bit empty???? Perhaps the crowds were just not there because most of the players had already left for their various clubs? It is good that we are celebrating the super eagles but surely we should allow Keshi and his crew to get back to work as they do have plenty of work to do???
Is good for what Guinness did, is high time we appreciate our fellow human, more so Guinness should also remember those on the street, like beggars and orphans. Steven Keshi you do us proud. Big Kudos to you

Very cool, congrats to them, although I didn't hear about the concert, would have love to attend.
