Genevieve Nnaji reveals why she didn’t become a Glo Ambassador
Fans were shocked when Actress, Genevieve Nnaji, wasn’t picked as a Glo Ambassador, instead she was signed on by rival telecommunications brand, Etisalat.
Reports had earlier said that the deal didn’t pull through because she referred them to her Manager and that even when Mike Adenuga personally called her, she said the same thing.
In a new interview with PM news, she cleared the misconception, saying:
“First of all, that is not true as I never spoke to Dr. Mike Adenuga. In fact, it will be an honour to speak with him. However, let us face the subject of speaking with my manager. I think it is professional that managers should be contacted when issues about business are about to be discussed. I am not saying that was the issue with that particular brand. But let’s assume it was; is there any problem speaking with someone’s management? Please tell me. Truly I was approached. We had negotiations but things didn’t work out and everyone moved on. It is simple.”

The duo hugged themselves happily and passionately in a team spirit of togetherness on a street of Osun when the news came to them that their guber candidate, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, has won the governorship election. The re-elected Aregbesola, who was also happy at the result of the election, assured the residents of a better future for the state.

Kim Kardashian Sneaks Back Stage To Watch Kanye West
He may have thousands of fans screaming at him from the audience but Kanye West's biggest supporter was quietly cheering him on from backstage on Friday night.
His wife Kim Kardashian was spotted peeping through a backstage curtain while Kanye West performed last night. Kanye shouted out his wife during the show! An eyewitness tells us EXCLUSIVELY.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashian star shunned the VIP area in favour of peeking out from behind a heavy curtain backstage.
Kim also posted a sneaky snap on Instagram of her husband while on stage - which she later removed - and captioned it, 'Hiding backstage'.
But her hiding space was not the best as in another photograph, someone took a picture of Kim as she crouched down and peered out at the rapper.
