Adebola Williams RED Co- Founder Announced As Globacom Brand Ambassador]‏

Media personality and co-founder of Red Media Africa, Adebola Williams, 

has joined the list of brand ambassadors of the national

telecommunications operator, Globacom. He is the first non-entertainment 

ambassador for a major Nigerian telecoms company.

A statement released in Lagos by Globacom on Thursday said Williams is 

among the new set of ambassadors signed on recently by the firm.

The media personality has quickly settled down as brand ambassador by 

featuring in a television commercial which is already running on local 

and international media including CNN, the statement noted.

The telecoms company said it decided to expand its list of ambassadors 

to include more young, hard working Nigerians whose achievements in 

entrepreneurship and other endeavour are inspiring the coming 

generation. Although many of its brand ambassadors are entertainment and 

sports celebrities, Glo explained that it desires to demonstrate to 

youths that even without being in sports and entertainment they could 

still be rewarded and celebrated as long as they showed diligence in

their chosen areas of endeavour.

Williams is co-owner of the very successful brands, The Future Awards 

Africa, Y! Africa and YNaija.com. He played a major role in the 

rebranding of President Muhammadu Buhari for the 2015 general election.

An alumnus of the London School of Journalism, London School of 

Marketing and the School of Media and Communications of the Pan-Atlantic 

University, Williams recently became an Obama Mandela Washington Fellow.

In 2015, Globacom added several new celebrities to its brand endorsement 

portfolio. They include comedians Bovi Ugboma and Ayo Makun, popularly 

called AY. Musical artistes, Reekado Banks, Korede Bello and Hadizah 

Blell (Di'ja), as well as Nollywood stars, Patience Ozokwor, popularly 

called Mama G, and O.C Ukeje.
