SAKA Finally ports to MTN, jettison Etisalat
Filo: Afeez Oyetoro fondly
called SAKA is a popularly name in the entertainment circles possibly because of
his hilarious interpretation of roles.
The
lecturer cum actor before now was known as a brand ambassador of EMTS (Etisalat); however in the recent porting
advert of MTN, Saka seems to have
dumped his first love. The ad started with Saka dressed in green traditional
attire only to metamorphose into a yellow costume singing ‘I don port o, I don
port go MTN. I don upgrade to MTN‘.
Let’s
recall an interview he granted Saturday Tribune last year, SAKA said “As you
must have known I had a very poor
background and I have said it before that at a point in my life, poverty
was too evident with bread and beans
as well as guguru and epa being my
anointed foods but today it is all history. The Etisalat campaign is blessing my pockets, it has also boosted my
profile to the point that I believe that real stardom will soon come. However,
I am still my humble self”
Saka, so what happened?
Kiyo: Many questions begging
for answers;
1. Was
there a contractual agreement between Etisalat and Saka or his rep?
2. If
yes, has the contract elapsed?
3. If
no, why would a company in the calibre of EMTS
have a brand ambassador or propagandist without a contractual document?
4. Is
MTN more afraid of Etisalat than other competitors?
5. Would
the advertising war obviously started by MTN be healthy for our nascent porting
regime?

known to man decided to take to facebook to canvass for patronage.

facebook with the account name ‘Prostitutes
in Ghana’. They have a catchword “There's
no need to masturbate anymore. Just inbox us and our ladies will be at your
doorstep. Ladies interested should also inbox!!!”
