New Year resolution for Ikechukwu Uche isn’t so much
about what habit he needs to stop in 2015, but about what more he can do now on
the prime of his career. The fair Super Eagles star striker may have looked at
his prospects as a model and Brand ambassador in Nigeria and has gone ahead
to sign up a pro- negotiator Lawyer to
take care of the marketing end.
Since Ikechukwu renewed his contract with the
Spanish club Villarreal, a lot of brands in Nigeria have been knocking on his
door. Some need him to model their products, while others are offering him
their brand ambassador. Perhaps, you may want to find out why suddenly interest
has shifted to the Villarreal player.
We all know Super Eagles will not be participating
in Africa Cup of Nation (AFCON) 2015, so there’s no chance for ikechukwu to
show case his skills in Equatorial Guinea . So why are advertisers clamoring to
have him as their brand ambassador?
Well, Ikechukwu uche is in his best form now; so
some brand managers are already anticipating that he may become one of the most
popular players in Nigeria. IKechukwu is scoring more regular now and may turn
out to be the first choice marksman for Villarreal, so he is likely to be on
the spotlight in 2015.
IKechukwu has the looks and physique and can pass for
a real model, apart from his celebrity status. So you can understand why brands
want to kill two birds with one stone. Ikechukwu can be a superb model for top
class fashion brands.
Talking about the business sense of an Ibo man,
Ikechukwu has gone ahead to sign Majestic Management and Activity Chambers to
market his services and enter into negotiation with any company, Corporate
body, government agency, Organizations… interested in him advertising and or
endorsing their brands to the public.
Johnny Precious Ogbah, the pro-negotiator Lawyer, as
he is popularly called, explained the kind of agreement his Chamber entered
with the Super Eagles player.
“Ikechukwu Uche is a great role model every brand
would like to associate with, no doubt, but his growing popularity in Nigeria
and around the world has made him the most wanted bride, companies are ready
to woo him to become their brand associate or ambassador here in Nigeria.”
“The face of Ikechukwu Uche can sell any brand in
the around the world and we are very much in anticipation that in 2015, he can
get the entire spotlight. He’s already scoring regularly for his club Villarreal
and we expect him to perfect his acts or skills in 2015.” Ogbah passionately
told us.
“We needed a kind of authorization to enable us push
his personal brand to companies and advertising agencies. This Non-exclusive
authorization gives my chambers some kind of right to engage the services of
sport marketing agencies for the purpose of securing endorsement and
advertising deals with organizations.” Ogbah concluded.
