have you being in South Africa bro don't talk what you don't know i Ilve in south africa for five years ( 2010-2015) before relocating to Europe, I never see south africa companies doing advert in CNN like Nigeria the only companies I knew is standard bank and MTN and is not all the time like Nigeria companies.

Oga, glomobile, zenith, uba, dangote are in other African countries. If they don't advertise on a big platform like CNN, how do they appeal to serious customers and investors?

dignity33:
pls educate me.

No bruh! Educate yourself. When you open Facebook with a vpn, do you see the same ads as without?

viccipedia:
so Zenith bank has offices in UK?

Yes, in Dagenham, London.

scoundrel:
Random fact if you travel to the United States:
Do You Know That Out Of Five Adverts Aired By CNN, Five Are From The United States?

It is the region we are in. In London it wasn’t so. In Europe the CNN broadcast shows only European commercials, and so on. Nigerian companies have a lot of money and know serious minded business individuals watch CNN. It is only normal for them to advertize to the best potential customers.

CNN English is one and is air all over English speaking country except you are in Spain that air CNN Espanol . e.t.c

Listen to people who actually travel out for one, you may learn something. The content is the same, but the commercials are different.

Not that I remember, however online banking is a big thing there. It was way saturated in their climes before it scratched the surface of ours.

Not true, content and commercials are the same on CNN all over the world.

Currently watching CNN in Europe.

obaaderemi:
Yes, in Dagenham, London.

noted! That is to say that they might have enough audience to want to advertise in that region. Everything about advertising is targeted. Nothing can change that.

wwwihy:
No ... because, you are watching it from Nigeria... Similar things in other Countries... Advertising is Country Focus.. CNN Nigeria

Where are you writing this crap from

lol... I think it’s pretty much obvious that technology did not and doesn’t begin from here. It gets here eventually though.

Hmm, an alternate. Let me leave you. I have educated those willing to listen.

dignity33:
I have being watching CNN but what baffles me about Nigeria companies is the level of advertisement they spend there money on CNN, if you don't know Nigeria you will think they're richest country in the world even the USA that own CNN never have there companies advertising products on CNN.

I know some will say that you can air your product on any television you wish anywhere in the world but my question is why spending big to air your product on television channel from a country who can not even allowed your product in there country . Do you know that money this companies spend on useless advert In CNN a year can sponsor a league cup in Nigeria professional league. In south africa all the major banks sponsors there local league cup every year but you can never see them advertising on CNN. There is Absa cup, FNB CUP, NEDBANK Cup and do you know that ABSA BANK can buy two of Zenith bank. Nigeria why are we like this, are we corse with bad leaders that lack reform and good agenda for this country.

Zenith, Airtel, Dangote, Glo, UBA, Access bank e.t.c they are guilty of this Nigeria need reform on this.

OP, they advertise to attract foreign investors.

wwwihy:
Where in Europe...? I will search for your location

I live in frauenfeld Switzerland go and search

chozzy:

This is another angle.

For example, dangote is building one of the world's biggest refineries in Lagos, which partly is funded by foreign investment. This people have a good reason for doing what they do.

The adverts maybe good in promoting international investment in Nigeria.

But the surprise is that South Africa big banks and other countries don’t advertise CNN frequently.

I'm not denial that but many companies are bigger than them why our own always different.

Ads for broadcast are targeted.
If you are in the UK and you are seeing even our Channels TV, you get ads that are relevant to you(the UK audience) different from what we viewing same station in Nigeria get.
It's same with CNN

Not true, you only achieve this through internet broadcast. Adverts on CNN is the same all over the world irrespective of where you are watching from.

I live in frauenfeld Switzerland . CNN is the same get sense.

You don't understand advertising so don't embarrass yourself. Who told you Americans or even other continents, without presence of those companies, that watch CNN see those adverts?

dignity33:
lie I'm not watching it in Nigeria, I'm in Europe.

You mean you watch those adverts in Europe? Bode George made the same observation last year too

Are you sure?

dignity33:

It doesn't make sense at all

What happened to local TV stations?

dignity33 Bode George made the same observation
See: https://www.nairaland.com/5464665/cnn-adverts-fg-must-punis

That is Iberiberism.

edoairways:
Are you sure?

Yes because I visited Nigeria in December for 1 month, watch CNN in my village. It is the same with the one I am watching in Germany.

The same dominated zenith, Dangote adverts and co. Even now I am watching CNN in Germany, following on Coronavirus trend.

thank you for that, so bode George don't know how CNN operate too.

It maybe boosting image of Nigeria but CNN maybe popular among Nigerians because I hardly see a Ghanaian watching CNN.

Perhaps the adverts is targeting Nigerians living all over the world.
