Globacom, on Friday
night treated students of the University of Benin, Ambrose Alli
University, Ekpoma and the Federal Polytechnic, Auchi to a night of
fun in what it tagged Glo #StayBuzzin at the Hexagon Club, GRA, Benin.
The
party which held simultaneously in four other cities same night –
Lagos, Ibadan, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, were organised in
preparation for the mega music and comedy shows called Glo Mega Music Nationwide Tour and Glo Laffta Fest from Friday, April 7th in 27 cities.
The company also used the parties to introduce Glo Cafe,
an app designed for all categories of telecom subscribers, particularly
students and youths. It is a one-stop telecommunication solution. Glo
Cafe which offers games, videos, music, sports, entertainment and
e-commerce is also positioned as the fastest and easiest way to
recharge the Glo account.
The company said: “Glo Cafe is not just
an entertainment portal, but also helps customers recharge data and
airtime, e-top up, as well as maintain their account status, among other
values. It can be downloaded by existing subscribers by sending Buzz to 288.”
The highly-elated students could not ask for more as the in-house DJ
continuously blasted vibes that kept them dancing until the early hours
of Saturday. Some of them
demonstrated their prowess for comedy, singing and dancing and they got
quality gifts as prizes for their efforts.
The duo of two Glo brand ambassadors – ace comedian, Gordons and the most sensational Nigerian female vocalist, Omawumi – anchored the show to the delight of the ecstatic students.
President of the UNIBEN Students Union Government, Lauretta Obakpolor, after the show, commended Globacom for “always finding time to engage the young folks”.
Globacom’s National Sales Coordinator, Mid-West Territory, Augustu-ndu Offor,
noted that the Stay Buzzin Party “is to herald a lot of other
activities on the Glo network and we can assure you that from now till
the end of the year, there will be no dull moment on the network.”

University of Lagos, where its students and those from the Yaba
Polytechnic came out in large numbers to have fun with good music and a
rich doze of comedy from Omni, Whalemouth and humour merchant, Bovi, who anchored the show. The atmosphere was further electrified when megastar and King of the Street, Olamide arrived the party.
Olaniyi Opeyemi, president of the Faculty of Arts students, University of Lagos, had this to say after te show, “I had a whole load of fun tonight.
Well packaged show and I give kudos to Globacom for thinking about the
welfare of the youths. The Glo Cafe App and the shows will really
improve our social, educational and financial life. Glo is indeed
representing the Nigerian dream”.
Similarly, it was fun all the way on Friday

The presence of Glo Ambassador, Sani Danja heightened the excitement as the students took turns to take ‘selfie’ with him.

students who came in bus loads from the University of Ibadan, Lead City
