ReplyDeleteWow, most of the people they dropped are big shots, and they have made name and money for them selves, so they can support the yonger generations,cool.
ReplyDeleteWhy na. Anyway they can't remain ambassadors forever,it's time for someone else to shine.
ReplyDeleteHmmnnn, my guess is they can't afford to keep the bigger shot and are settling for the big shot.
ReplyDeleteKai!! I've missed much on SDK, still awake right now cos am doing some catching up. Can't believe all I've missed during my busy hours. Baba God, let this little light of mine shine. Ma ma je ki enibody beere pe Ibo lolorun mi wa o.
Good morning Stella, aya Dimoko
*God bless my Angel in human form*
Is this another stylish form of begging for more again?
DeleteI see you're very greedy! I am Yoruba and know the deep meaning of these words,which light wan shine again? Who go ask who your God be? Abeg! Get lost from here.
Nobody has gotten any monetary gift close to what you got on this blog, yet, they are appreciative and not coming back to beg again. Be gone pls thief.
Na wa for this anon. 8.39 o. What if the light is a budding business venture. Pray to God for grace, and stop hating on others. The insult una give her the other day never do you abi.
DeleteNAwa o
ReplyDeleteChai wetin? Dem never collect enuf? Abeg make dem park well
ReplyDeleteShut up what is chai? Life happens others have to benefit too so stop sounding like something went wrong

ReplyDeleteChikito,how market? madam know it all. U see your life. Keep disgracing yourself all over the place.Wizkid is currently a Glo ambassador. Oya thank me immediately.
DeleteStop forming too hard to be noticed cheap slut as your name predicts.
DeleteAnon. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Back to your mother
DeleteGood for them
ReplyDeleteStella sugar, why the "chai"?
ReplyDeleteThe former group cannot be in our faces forever to commercialize MTN. Abegi the money has to change hands, it has to go around.
Everyone has their time, even God the creator of all things is a God of time & season.
Congrats to the new MTN brand ambassadors. I pray their gains from this endorsement deal yields fruits 10 folds in their lives & let it trickle down their communities in one way or another.
#Money must change hands#
Davido and Tiwas controversy I guess. Forever washing dirty linens in public.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is MTN is broke no long story.
ReplyDeleteSee make i tell una, as an insider, it was Don Jazzy, Davido and Tiwa's high profile dramas that got them hacked. Don Jazzy: his unguarded statement that led to the issue at Headies; Tiwa: the very public and shameful issue with her (ex) husband; Davido: baby mama/Dubai drama, his utter rudeness and uncouth attitude. Tiwa should be grateful to Jay-Z and had better be waking up early to go sweep his garage and wash Blu Ivy clothes.
ReplyDeleteNo spilt milk to cry over; they are "millionaires" already. There are far less privileged Nigerians and life still goes on.
You have a point oh
