Renowned Investment Banking firm, GTI Group has expressed delight with Nigeria’s music icons Flavour, Saheed Osupa, DJ Big N, MC Bash and CDQ for identifying with the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). According to the Media Officer of Rangers International of Enugu, Norbert Okolie, he revealed that the presence of Flavour at Match Day 33 to cheer the team served as a morale booster which saw fans of the club thronging to Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium as Rangers trounced Bayelsa United 3-0 to maintain their grip on the summit of the NPFL table.
On another separate occasion, and during Match Day 34, Saheed Osupa, DJ Big N, MC Bash and CDQ took fans to ‘Cloud 9’ as they lavishly entertained them shortly after the game between 3SC of Ibadan and visiting Abia Warriors. In that encounter, 3SC triumphed 4-0 over Abia Warriors and the Media Officer of 3SC, Tosin Omojola confirmed that the presence of the four artists helped attract a massive crowd of supporters to the match venue.
Reacting to this positive development, GTI’s Head of Media and Publicity, Andrew Ekejiuba, commended the music icons for joining other stakeholders in complimenting the efforts of Hon Gbenga Elegbeleye-led Nigeria Premier Football League board in promoting the beautiful game in the country. He added that the blend of football and live music performance has the magical wand of returning the crowd to our various elite league venues. He then called on other notable musicians to emulate this new trend and partner with our elite clubs to facilitate the development of the sports ecosystem for mutual benefits.
“As strategic partners to the NFF on the President Federation Cup and the Nigeria Premier Football League respectively, GTI Asset Management and Trust Limited are delighted with this positive development whereby our music superstars are identifying with the elite league and contributing to the upliftment of Nigerian football using their God-given talent. They thrilled soccer fans in Ibadan on Match Day 34 and we discovered that their presence motivated fans to throng the Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan to watch the epic encounter. We hope this trend continues because this strategy has the tendency of endearing soccer fans to their various clubs which is what GTI and NPFL are currently craving for.
“We appreciate these musicians and other institutions that have partnered with the respective NPFL Clubs and the League body. Therefore, we look forward to similar partnership with more musicians and institutions in future,” he stated.
