GLO AMBASSADORS RULE THEIR WORLD IN JOZI

By Habeeb

By the time you read this, Nollywood Glo ambassadors would have settled down to their daily hectic routines after a recent trip to South Africa to shoot an advert for telecom giant GLOBACOM. The trip is being described as a gigantic success as 16 Nollywood/ Gollywood actors teamed up with 20 Ghanaian musicians to record the latest version of the GLO advert –WE GOT PEOPLE TALKING.

The Nigerian actors including Ramsey Nouah, Rita Dominic, Desmond Elliot, Uche Jombo, Chioma Chukwuka, Ini Edo, Mike Ezuronye, Mona Lisa Chinda, Funke Akindele, Nonso Diobi and Ali Nuhu arrived Johannesburg Sunday July 20, 2009. They were joined hours later by Kate Henshaw who travelled from London and Jim Iyke from the United States. The Ghanaian actors arrived a day later and included Van Vicker, Jackie Appiah and Nadia Buari.

The recording was a momentous occasion which even awed the stiff upper lipped British director of the advert. The director congratulated everyone personally and stated that if the Nigerian and Ghanaian football teams matched the performance and enthusiasm of the stars, it would spell doom for other countries in the 2010 world cup.
One must commend GLO for the combination of stars chosen as they have apparently shown maturity, motivation and camaraderie in their eagerness to dispatch their duties for the telecom giant.
