Entertainment talent manager Andrew Uyi Ogbomoide known as Drew Uyi said he has taken a break from the industry to return to his discipline in managing and branding athletes.

After taking a short break, Uyi said he has gone back to his first love and passion in athlete branding and sports management where he once worked with Ahmed Musa, Odion Ighalo and other football players.

According to him, “I’m in the sports to change the narrative of Africa athletes as I see they have been managed poorly in the past I strongly believe in developing Africa athletes brands value to increase their market value.”
