Why Singer, Olamide dumped Etisalat ambassadorship for Glo

It has become a public embarrassment Nigeria singer, Olamide ‘Badoo’ Adedeji  dumping Etisalat for Glo.

Though he never revealed reasons he quits Etisalat. But until the sad news filtered that Etisalat had bankrupt.  And the company is owing  N541.8 billion . Olamide has seen the hard times coming before switched to Glo.

Sources said it got to a point that Etisalat could not fulfilled it promises on Olamide contract due to logistics and dept rising on the Etisalat’s account.

More so, new broke hours ago that Etisalat Nigeria is on the verge of being taken over by its bankers following the collapse of talks on its payment of a $1.72 billion (about N541.8 billion) debt.

The lenders may take over the firm as soon as the legal requirements are met.

The eventual take-over is as a result of the inability of Emerging Markets Telecommunications Services (EMTS), promoted by-one time Chairman, United Bank for Africa Hakeem Bello-Osagie, to agree with the banks on the debt restructuring plan.

However, Dutch company EMTS Holding BV,  has up to June 23 to complete the transfer of 100 per cent of the telco’s shares in Etisalat to the United Capital Trustees Limited, the legal representative of the consortium of banks, Fujiipop gathered.

Nigerian Stars Wizkid, Davido, Olamide, other shunned 2016 NEAs

As reports have it , it has become peculiar with almost every event held in Nigeria, the 2016 Nigerian Entertainment Awards in New York had an ‘African time’ delay.

The annual award ceremony’s 11th edition, which was scheduled to start at 11pm (Nigerian time) didn’t begin until a few minutes before 3am.

Unlike last year’s event that had top entertainment personalities in attendance, several acts like Wizkid, Davido, Olamide, Lil Kesh,Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade, Falz and many more who bagged nominations in various categories didn’t turn up for the award ceremony.

While many celebrities went to their social media pages to solicit for votes from their fans when the nominations were announced, very little  mention was made about being at the event on the day as the venue was left almost empty.

YBNL singer Adekunle Gold who won the award for ‘Best New Act’ and Niniola were among the few celebs in attendance.

This further raises previously held questions about why an award ceremony for Nigerian entertainers needs to hold in the United States.

Perhaps, the skyrocketing exchange rate could have been a reason for the absence, or maybe they just don’t regard the award ceremony important enough for their time and presence.
