Why I signed with Glo - Wizkid

Nigeria’s music superstar Wizkid, has shed light on the circumstances surrounding his new endorsement deal with Nigeria’s telecommunications giant, Globacom.



In a statement released in Lagos by his Manager, Mr. Sunday Are, Wizkid said Globacom is a brand he had admired for a very long time considering its strong persona and its very massive impact and image in the entertainment industry in Nigeria.


“Globacom is huge in my industry and I see the evidence of the company’s commitment to improving the industry and the lives of its practitioners everywhere I turn. To be honest, it’s been a dream to have a working relationship with the Glo brand. An opportunity to turn this dream to reality came, and I took it.”


“It’s an incredible blessing to be sought after by arguably Nigeria’s two most powerful brands at the same time. My decision to go with Globacom this time is not an act of spite against MTN. I simply seized an opportunity to move from Yellow land to greener pastures. God ble

      Nah bro it's all about more money.
      Even timaya dumped MTN because they want to renew their contract with the same amount they did years ago by ignoring the fact these guys have grown bigger from what they were years ago up till this present time.
      Its like been stagnant and not progressing hence most people are moving on.

    Nice one wizzy. This should be a lesson to other celeb who renewed their contract. They are not sure of their popularity. Thumbs up Timaya for your decision. I hope you will get a better deal too.
