Saka |
He is one of Nigeria's best comedians. His name is Afeez Oyetoro and his comedic journey started from his days at the University of Ife. He continued his journey after school and even as a lecturer he has continued spreading laughter and sunshine. Maybe it was because of his looks, his acting abilities and that special talent to make people laugh that ETISALAT the telecom giants decided to sign him and Jude Orhorha (bebebe) of Checkmate up to become Psuedo brand faces. Saka the character he represented pulled in a lot of converts to the brand.and Etisalat enjoyed his advantages but Etisalat has suddenly lost out in the corporate advertising game of power to MTN for the single and fundamental mistake of not signing Saka to a contract as their brand face
Saka has ported over to MTN and has pocketed the princely sum of 20 million Naira. Maybe now we can see him a little fatter as the good times start rolling.

Afeez Oyetoro |
A lot of his fans are disappointed however that he left ETISALAT. Most are threatening to move with him over to MTN and somewhere in the portals of corporatedom, a silent war is brewing and bad blood and bitterness are festering. Most of the people who have seen the advert say that it put Etisalat down, making it look like Etisalat is an inferior network.
There are rumors that Etisalat is planning some sort of revenge. There are yet other rumors that another telecom giant is planning to step into the fray and hijack the Nollywood star. Saka seems to be enjoying all the attention however but his fans are seriously not happy about his volte face. Some court cases are brewing, we hope not.after all, all fair in war.
