Glo Advert on Cnn Degrades Nigerians Living Abroad by mob82: 9:47am On Nov 09, 2012
I've watched it a dozen times and i come away with a bad feeling everytime.

Glo's attempt to market their top up cards abroad seem to portray Nigerians in a bad light.

My Issues:
Must glo depict every Nigerian abroad as either a newspaper vendor, Taxi-Cab driver or Hotel porter?

Have u seen the advert? What do u think?

I've seen the advert on CNN too. But i don't see how it degrads Nigerians abroad. Okay!!! Because Glo is owned by a Nigerian means the telecom only operates in Nigeria. Or don't you know that Glo cut-across europe and asia. These are all business strategies. They're only promoting their telecom. BTW, Glo also advertise there company here in Nigeria via media(Radio & Television), Newspaper, marks, public buses etc.. So, i really don't what You're talking about.

No offence, pls i think you should read the OP's comment again, then compare it with your post(i don't see the link between the two).
On topic, i don't think it degrades Nigerians in any way.
