Nah, he is gauging the culture first.

[Once he is more comfortable in his surroundings and confirms a way not to be beheaded for knacking a samurai’s wife/widow, he might make his move.

My feeling though is that the woman will be the one to make the move.

Bashir Ahmad knows the game they were playing when on the eve of an election they hit Nigerians with the double whammy of the worst fuel scarcity I can remember and the nairapocalpse.

The best I can say is they wanted to throw the election to Atiku.

He’s a Buharist but he’s right with what he said…. You can’t blame past administration throughout your tenure.
How is he right? He is only trying to find a soft landing for his boss' administration ni.

They performed woefully and everybody knows it. If Tinubu and his people decide swear an oath of silence, the rot Buhar left behind will always stink and speak for itself .

For example Hadi Sirika deceived himself and those who were suffocating us with Nigeria Air news that time about Nigerian National carrier being ready for use. Today where is Nigeria Air ? U fit epp me book a seat on Nigeria Air I wan quickly reach Abuja go buy kilishi grin

Now even if Keyamo keep quiet as the new Aviation minister, shey e no dey obvious say Hadi Sirika na 419?

Bashir is now saying they shouldn't focus on or amplify their faults. Adinbi I know Bashir, I for give am dirty slap ! angry

i raise you .

Mobil is the preferred engine oil

we did our research then and relised mobil has established trust with mechanics over decades. if we were going to get mechnics to buy into our oil , we would have to win their hearts and minds.

when you see downstream companies sponsoring mechanic training or mechanic vaillages, that is what it is about

in the 2000s when banks were flush with cash post 25b capitalization, a lot of weird promotion exercises were afoot

as an example, the banks hired a lot of advertising guys from FCMG industry

so we were seeing open account and win 1 million naira ads. it was weird and bizarre. banking is supposed to be a sober industry, but they now adopted FCMG style marketing tactics.

what works in one industry does not apply in another industry

like AP using tiwa savage in adverts. are you going to buy petrol from AP because of tiwa savage? or all those glo celebrity ads that nigerians themselevs mock, saying adenuga should spend his money on boosting the network

i hope you went straight to AP to fill your tank after seeing this. i am sure she sorted out your engine fatigue


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe1J2AWY0DU

i cant find the original. the original ad
Baba AP is an already established player in the game na. This rowe engine oil people are new in town and they need to put their product in our faces. Pete Edochie is like one of the few actors almost everyone can't claim they don't know who he is. The man has been acting since the time of our parents and he's still here now.

Those people know what they are doing using him. U may not patronize them because of him, but some other Nigerians will do. There are academic research that affirm the position that there is direct relationship between celebrity endorsing a company's product and improvement in such company's profitability.

a lot of advertsing here may not work because of a fundamental misunderstanding of the target market

first of all, most nigerians do not service their cars. they hand them over to their mechanics to service
the wealthy rich ones - their drivers handle the servicing
so if you are really trying to advertise engine oil, that is your target market

i am a techie, and you can be sure i am not going to buy an ssd or ram for my laptop because ice cube is advertising it
in fact, if i see a celebrity advertising a product, my antennae go up because 90% of the time, they are endorsing a product they dont understand , which means it is more about money than actual conviction in the product

celebrity promotions can work - but yul edochie is definetely not going to convince me to engine oil for my car or fleet of generators
Baba advertisement is not something a company just wakes and pump money inside hoping it will work out. Advertisement actually involves a lot of research on the part of the marketing/corporate communications team.

They research the demographics of their target audience and figure out what they believe will appeal to them. Me and u are looking at things from the outside.

Look at it this way: They are coming into an already saturated market and they need to use a face that the people see as household name; someone that inspires confidence. The mere fact that we are discussing the brand ambassadorship right now shows their advertising strategy is almost a success. They got us talking about it even if we don't have any need for engine oil now.

Let's say I buy a generator or any equipment that requires engine oil, I might just decide to even try rowe engine oil out even if it is out of curiosity.

I knew it was a lie that's why I never joined the conversation in the first place. Buhari supported farmers alot with most of the beneficiaries in the North.
I've not seen that kind of delusion before.

Even when I was a kid I know FG usually does agricultural intervention for farmers and it only makes sense that most of those intervention goes to the north since they are the ones who farm the most in Nigeria. Imagine my amazement reading that FG does not do anything for the north.

Maybe if he had said the interventions are not enough or not much compared to what private organizations do I would not even be bothered. Even the private organizations, what they do is geared towards them making profit while assisting the farmers. At least I have a friend that works in one of those companies and I know their company promoters make money when the harvest season is over.

Dem never serious[/color]
U are missing the whole point. There are several research studies online that confirm that there is a direct relationship between use of celebrities in advertisements and improvement in company profits. U can just google it.

Pete Edochie is an odogwu of celebrity who the general public perceive as having integrity. The company signing him on the brand endorsement are hoping latch on this perception.

It's not that deep at all. The company is not a charity organization that will just dish out cash to Pete Edochie; they intend to profit from his brand.

[color=royalblue]How can a company that manufactures Engine oil, use Pete Edochie as its ambassador?

I don't understand.

Why not go on Social Media, pick 10 celebrity mechanics, and pay them half of that amount to promote your oil?

I have never seen any sense in signing celebrities, to promote products that they have no authority.[/color]

https://www.nairaland.com/8003562/pete-edochie-seals-multi-millions-naira
We believe the deal is for a lifetime considering Pete’s age and we believe in the entire Africa not only Nigeria even beyond the shores of Africa that he is the most reputable movie star at present and because of the impeccability of his character and integrity. It is a multimillion naira deal because we know his value and the value of the oil and we are glad we did the deal,
The answer u seek is in the above.

Using a celebrity mechanic will not drive home the point they are trying to make about their brand to the public. They needed a face almost every adult who has need for engine oil can relate with as regards integrity and longevity.

It is as simple as that.

I will allow you in your ignorance. Keep talking gibberish. Continue. Is better like that.

Government is not doing anything in agriculture, if you like believe if you like don't.

Very soon, those companies will soon start (ID) inputs distribution. If you have time come and see how they get to real farmers using technologies and all.

All those ones you are seeing are alhajies. Come and see how SMF appreciate those companies.
Show workings and stop chatting gibberish. The company I currently work with sells one of the major agricultural inputs in Nigeria to the north and we sell at premium price down there. No compromise on price.

Tell us private companies that hand u guys free agricultural inputs at no cost to u. Let us know the limited liability companies acting as charity organizations doling out freebies to u at no cost to u at the end of the day.

If Government doesn't support agriculture in the north u think u would be able to grow anything in those arid lands?

... Lemme just say this. Most of you really think that government is the one funding agriculture in Northern Nigeria. Bleep government. They aint doing shit. Nothing. The ABP you are talking about went to every state and we all know what happened.

Private companies are the real guys funding agriculture in our region. They are the MVPs.
U are chatting gibberish . Just last week an Islamic was trying to justify why northerners who got anchor borrowers loan should not return the loan they got from government for the purpose of agriculture . Guess what ? Ribadu the NSA one of ur most educated was sitting down there sheepishly laughing instead of telling the ignorant cleric and his audience that not repaying a loan in itself is fraud .

Do y think we don't read news ? Do u think we are unaware of the so many FG funded and even United Nations FAO intervention projects that has funded agriculture in the north ? See ur mouth like " 4ck Government " grin

Like say ur state governments that buy tractors , subsidize fertilizers etc would've been able to do all of that if the revenue from oil sales was not shared to them. How many northern states make enough IGR without allocation from FG from sales of southern oil , FMCG like alcohol ur Hisbah people destroy every eke market day , etc ?

Is Ganduje not a politician? Is he a commoner.

Check those guys EFCC caught. How many Hausas are in it.

The North is very big with lots of tribes. I specifically called Hausa guys because you guys love insulting them by calling them all kinds of name here.

Abokis this and that bla bla bla but when I reply in like manner you all we come out and insulting. I wonder the kind of people some of you are.
So now it's not about the north again , it's about Hausa guys ? So Hausas don't do yahoo ? Hausas don't do any type of fraud ? Hausas don't engage in other forms of vices/crime ?

Whether u decide to embrace it or not, u are just a tribal bigot who would say all sort of nonsense to defend his kind while throwing insult at other people .

U find it offensive that that southerners generalize all Hausa guys are docile and not-so-smart hence the tag " aboki "; but same u is quick to call all southerners "yahoo boys " . Smh.

U are quick to generalize when it suits u but do not want generalization applied to ur own kind when southerners talk about beggars , almajiri , etc .

U never know wetin dey do u.

Just look at u giving Ganduje a pass because he's a politician . If u are comfortable with ur politician having a video online showing him receiving bribe and he's walking freely in northern Nigeria till date ; no surprise the Hausa guys who practice " dignity in labour" don't want to return anchor borrowers money .

He said he was supposed to fly in the chopper but on second thought he decided to accompany their luggage by road since the chopper could not carry it.

According to Falaye, he decided to accompany the luggage by road to ensure they arrived safely to his boss who told him it was a brilliant idea.

So he headed to Vegas by road with the luggage while Wigwe, his wife, son and Mr Ogunbajo boarded the chopper to the same destination
It's more like this man's instincts saved him. The part where he said he walked up to Wigwe and asked him " how comfortable are u flying a chopper at night " says it all.

In my opinion , the PA doesn't feel it's safe to fly chopper at night but being a very wise guy who knows how to massage ego of high and mighty in the society without sounding offensive or impulsive ( which is what will even get u a job as PA of someone like Wigwe ) ; he strategically excused himself from flying in the chopper by suggesting he goes with the luggage . That was why Wigwe think his idea was brilliant cos he gave Wigwe reason to believe he was going to make sure the luggages get to them that night while they chill out one or two hours earlier

He brought up a reasonable reason why he shouldn't fly in the chopper , but deep down him it was the fear of flying in a chopper at night that made him fold .

Fake news or propaganda or call it lamba is the greatest tool of this APC government. That guy called Bayo Onanuga is the one specifically trained for it. They have no shame.

They have also used state forces to capture national media. For me it's only independent media that I depend on for information or confirmation.
To be fair , Normally punch newspapers is anti-APC but dem no try for this news piece at all .

They didn't put in so much work before pushing this out . Dem for at least call the Heineken guy and ask him how FG intends to ramp up oil production to the 2.5m bpd before publishing the news.

I miss the good old days when TELL magazine and The News magazine go give u everything u need to read in one weekly publication .
