Adebayo Ola-Smith, Globacom (glo) Area Manager West 1 is still alive in Our Heart - Family.




**Bayo Ola-Smith, Globacom (glo) Area Manager West 1, Death Remembered By Family and Friends One Year Later: Forever remembered, Forever missed.
 
Exactly One Year after Globacom (glo) area manager west 1, Adebayo Ola-Smith was reported to have mysteriously committed suicide. (If you missed the last story click here). The incident happened on Friday, "Adebayo Ola-Smith did not commit suicide". The date our beloved Adebayo Ola-Smith was last seen in Globacom(glo) at challenge, Ibadan was 31st August, 2012 at about lunch time. It was reported that having received a call, he left Globacom(glo) at Challenge, Ibadan. However, did not return to the office as he pledged. His Globacom(glo) colleagues and the Nigerian Police force retrieved his dead body in his home in Ibadan on the 1st of September and transfered him to the mortuary. Adebayo was buried without any autopsy in Ibadan. Adebayo Ola-Smith was survived by his wife; 3 sons; 7 siblings (6 brothers, 1 sister); and 4 half brothers, several cousins, aunties and uncles.

The Nigerian Police Force  failed to ascertain the cause of death by following the sequence
1) Homicide
2) Suicide
3) Accident
4) Natural cause.

University College Hospital (UCH) Ibadan exploited the situation by demanding a fee of ₦500,000.00 to carry out an autopsy only because it was Globacom (glo) that brought Adebayo's corpse to the mortuary. Globacom (glo) failed to pay the fee despite their involvement and the fact that they were capable of footing the cost of establishing the cause of death. The option was open for Globalcom (glo) to recoup the post mortem cost from the payout of the leftover of Adebayo's entitlements (comprising several multiples of ₦500,000.00) many months later to his next of kin but common sense failed to prevail in the company.

Check reactions from the deceased  Friends and Family after the jump break.

Ini Edo Disgraced at Glo Event In Lagos



Last Sunday, August 11, was one that may not have ended on a happy note for Nollywood diva, Ini Edo. It was a day when telecommunication giant, Globacom, launched its Lagos edition of the Glo Slide and Bounce concert with all the ambassadors of the brand expected to attend the event. Among these were chart-bursting artistes in Nigeria: Tuface, Naeto C, Psquare, Burma Boy, Waje, Omawunmi as well as top Nollywood actors. Honouring the call in her capacity as an ambassador of the brand, Ini Edo arrived promptly, a little earlier than the scheduled time of 6pm and made her way to the back entrance of the Oriental Hotel, Lekki which led to the main hall.

Real reason Kunle Afolayan was dropped as a Glo ambassador



Kinda a petty reason, but it's the truth. The prolific movie director and actor was dropped as a Glo ambassador a few months ago because of Saka. Yes, Saka the actor and new MTN ambassador. Real name Afiz Ayetoro.
According to what I gathered, Kunle Afolayan was booted out when Globacom found out that one of the main characters in his Phone Swap movie (which was sponsored by Globacom) was Saka, an Etisalat face for many of their brands, at the time. (Before he ported to MTN )

Prior to him being dropped as an ambassador, Kunle had a smooth relationship with the company and did not go against any terms in his contract and was really shocked at his termination. Thing is, Kunle had been working on his movie long before he was approached to be a Glo ambassador. Globacom sponsored the movie and when it eventually came out and they saw Saka in it, that was it!

Lynxxx, Omawumi, Tiwa Savage, Flavor, MI, Naeto C to be confirmed as new Glo ambassadors




So here's the scoop. Lynxxx, Omawumi, Tiwa Savage, Flavour, MI, Bez, Naeto C, Chidynma (The Voice), and Lagbaja will soon be announced as the new ambassadors for telecoms giant, Globacom. The music stars or their reps met with the management of Glo at the conference room of Eko Hotel from Monday to Friday last week. 

According to the inside gist I gathered, Glo is planning to cut down on the number of old Nollywood stars who are currently their ambassadors (I know some of the ones that will be dropped but let me not announce it here because they are yet to informed), and replace them with young, vibrant music stars. I hear the next phase will be comedians.
