Following the announcement by MTN Group of the appointment of M&C Saatchi Africa as its marketing communications partner across all MTN Group Operating Companies, M&C Saatchi’s Nigerian affiliate, SO&U Group, will be responsible for the business in Nigeria.
SO&U worked with other in-market agencies across the continent led by M&C Saatchi Africa, anchoring the Nigerian content of the pitch. The appointment covers creative, media and digital services.
According to Udeme Ufot, Group Managing Director of SO&U, this win affirms SO&U’s commitment to professional excellence and an attestation of its resilience and continued relevance in the Nigerian marketing communications industry.
“We are really excited about the return of MTN and look forward to raising the bar on this second coming. MTN has always been a most inspirational client, fun to work with, highly professional, and well known for creating an enabling environment for mould breaking work. With our partnership with M&C Saatchi Africa, we are poised to embark on a new era of creativity, collaboration, and success,” he said.
