David Okeme, Brand Building
Director, Unilever Nigeria, who spoke during a press briefing while announcing
the promo said, “This promo goes to show our appreciation to the vast
individuals and families that make up the Naija we love. The passion between
the Close up and our consumers have waxed stronger over the years and the
massive support we have received has contributed immensely to making the Close
Up brand Nigeria’s Number 1.
“What we have
is not just a brand, Close Up is a Citizen brand, that cares for Nigerians. Our
mantra is ‘Close Up Loves Naija’. Today, we unveil yet another demonstration of
this commitment to healthcare – by unveiling the biggest Promotion ever in the
history of the brand.
Also speaking, Oiza Gyang,
Category Manager, Oral Care, said that beyond this promo, Close Up has been
very busy in engaging and connecting with various levels of the Nigerian
community. According to her, the recent tooth brushing challenge
which is a Guinness World Record attempt that saw over 300,000 youths gather to
brush their teeth simultaneously was among other things, a gateway to teach the
healthy habit of teeth brushing.
“We have also delighted Nigerians
with free dental checks. This is part of our social responsibility activities
and has seen many people – young and old – benefit from professional dental
care from members of the Nigerian Dental Association,” Gyang said.
Elated about the promo, Dexter
Adeola, Brand Manager, Close Up said, “We are excited about this promo as we
get to reach every
Nigerian individual and family we cater to. Our gesture goes to show that we
take the recent awards we have received recently seriously.”
The Close Up range of toothpaste comes in both red gel and green gel
and cuts across different variants such as Red Hot, Close up Menthol Chill,
Herbal White Now, Complete 8 and Complete 8 White, giving long lasting fresh
breath.
For Close Up and Nigeria, it has
been love at first sight. The brand which entered into the Nigerian market in
1975 with the launch of the Close Up red gel which is the flagship variant in
the Close Up range, has been the nation’s preferred brand over the years.

It’s September 1960, and with Nigeria on the verge of independence from British colonial rule, a northern Nigerian Police Detective, DAN WAZIRI, is urgently despatched by the Colonial Government to the trading post town of Akote in the Western Region of Nigeria to solve a series of female murders that have struck horror in the hearts and minds of the local community. On getting to Akote, more murders are committed, and with local tension high and volatile, Waziri has a race on his hands to solve the case before even more local women are killed.
Set against the backdrop of the national celebratory mood of the impending independence, Waziri is pulled into a game of cat and mouse as he and the killer try to outwit each other… leading to the climatic end in which the life of a popular local female teacher and village belle, TAWA, is held in the balance. Waziri has to race against the clock to capture the killer, save Tawa and solve the crime before the British flag is lowered and the Nigerian flag raised on Independence Day… October 1st.

Before I Write A Book part 3 - By Basketmouth
UNIBEN - 1999
When the posters came up on the hostel walls that there was going to be a Talent hunt show coming up which was organised by Femi Akinwunmi, I quickly registered for it as a rapper. The star price was a CD player..my dream. I imagined being able to replace our old cassette player and put on a CD like the rest of the boys.
I practised my lines and waited for d-day. 3 days to the event, I woke up with fever and to find my body covered with little sores...I had chicken pox. I used calamine lotion like my life depended on it, but they only seemed to increase by the day.
Then came the day of the competition. Everyone dressed up and left one after the other to the venue. I was in pain from the heat but in greater pain from being in that room rather than on that stage. I was covered in calamine lotion, disappointed as all my hope that I would have miraculously recovered in those 2 days had gone and with it, my dream of a CD player.
As I tried to play a tape on the radio to take my mind off everything, the cassette player wouldn't work. That was the last straw. In anger, I got up, washed off the lotion from my hands and feet, washed off my face and neck. I wore a long sleeve shirt, buttoned up and hit the road with my friend/manager...Bayo Adekeye. The walk from my room to the Uniben Auditorium was the most difficult 45 mins of my life...well, one of.
I got to the venue early enough, the competition was about to begin. I saw the brand new silver BUSH CD player on the stage...it was beautiful. I couldn't help but imagine. Then the compere, Tee A began to call out the names. Before long, I heard my name...I came out did my one track performance and in the second round,I switched the game at them,and did a comedy performance.
The next morning, our neighbours woke up to the loudest music, it came from our room, we were celebrating, singing, shouting and dancing to music from the shiny BUSH CD player on our table...and in midst of the crowd, a young dreamer covered from head to toe in white calamine lotion danced the hardest.....
Now guys......i'll stop here,you guys should wait for the book. It comes out this December.

"I am a victim of domestic violence" - Actress Chika Ike opens up
The past three years has been a very emotional period for me. I focused my energy on work and to build back my self esteem. its been really hard for me to come out straight and talk about this because sometimes I pinch myself to wake up and not believe that I was a victim of domestic violence. I've been through a lot in my life, faced a lot of challenges but this is one topic I've tried so hard to avoid and have been waiting for the right time but I have come to a resolve that there's really no right time because every second of the day,lives are being lost due to domestic violence. I was a victiim of domestic violence in my marriage and that was the singular reason I left my marriage, aside other reasons.Growing up as a girl. I was always known as the sweetest kid on the block, before I got married, I have been through some relationships and for once no man had ever laid a finger on me. The first time it happened in my marriage I didn't understand it because I am not the type of woman a man beats but I guess there are no types. It just happens and no woman deserves it. As a young girl I thought it was love or his way of expressing his emotions,after every beating he pleads , cries and says it won't happen again, once again I thought it was love and made excuses for him. Over the years when it kept happening consistently I started looking for other definitions for it. I started loosing my self pride,self esteem , self worth, and most painfully i lost a pregnancy (Miscarriage) I almost lost my life in the process then I realised how serious and abnormal it really was.
I have heard and read a lot of accusations from ignorant people who don't know my story,I guess that's why they are ignorant. I was 20yrs old and very naïve to the world when I got married .“ They said I married for money“ LOL. I was married to a corporate guy,who had a 9_5 job in a bank, Lives in a rented 2 bedroom apartment at Egbe.. So do the maths! . I married for love. I did a traditional wedding. A white wedding and a court wedding. So that's how much I wanted to be married forever. For five years I hoped, prayed & wished that one day it will all change. But the last straw that broke the carmels back was during a heated argument he threw a glass jug to my face and I dogged it and it shattered on d wall. I saw death flash before me and I made a decision to save my life. I left my marriage.
Am not saying this to draw pity from anyone because we are entitled to our opinions and believes. I am not also saying this to discourage people from falling in love because its a beautiful feeling and I still believe in it. I am saying this to educate, share and talk about my experience as a victim of domestic violence because it is real.
