Mtn Disses Etisalat In Its Number Portability TV Commercial by nuwell(m): 8:08am On Apr 23, 2013 |
Hey folks, I saw the new MTN television commercial for the recently activated number portability scheme, for the first time, yesterday and I couldn't suppress a smile at some of the 'interesting' messages in it. Here's a brief of my observations: * Hafiz Oyetoro aka Saka, appears to be the ambassador for this campaign. He was popular with the Etisalat brand and it seemed his loyalty to that brand was unquestionable. In this commercial, he is systematically unveiled as he sings the theme song, with emphasis (to my mind) on 'I don port o... to MTN.' That definitely cracked me up. I'm certain his Etisalat days are over. I doubt we'll be seeing 'Saka' in any other adverts for Etisalat except to demonstrate how number portability enables him to 'dump' MTN 90 days later, due to unsatisfactory services (or contract terms). (hahaha) * Next, judging by the speed with which advert was released, MTN takes the bull by the horns, confident that this scheme is more favourable to them than their competitors. I can't imagine how long they took to woo Mr. Saka for this one. All in all, the TVC is hilarious. Check out the video here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUVdnzC19oU. Like someone commented, 'Saka sef don port. Wetin you dey wait for?' lol Did you observe any other or similar nuances? Share. Thanks (c)www.nu-well..com 3 Likes |

If Saka actually did an advert for MTN, then thats too un professional. And i dont think his services will be needed by other firms in terms of adverts. I used to like him, but this act is just too bad. Bunch of back stabbers. 10 Likes |

This is not a minor issue looking from a businessman perspective. Saka betrayed etisalat as a whole by that, so i'll advice etisalat to go for a revenge and get Osuofia and Mama G to do the same. 11 Likes |

The First Few Seconds of the Video Was a Sly Dig to Glo & Etisalat, The Color of the Dress was an Intentional Blow to GLO & Etisalat. I remember @ SAKA Had done Previous Adverts for GLO & Etisalat. MTN Get Nice Concept Sha |

I appreciate the concept but Etisalat should have matched the Money for money. Allowing your brand ambassador go else where at this critical time is not called for. This advert will have a psychological effect on a lot of low level users who only care about calling. |
