StarTimes, TPT shine at BJAN 2016 awards

Frontline digital TV network operator StarTimes, and  foremost Public Relations Agency in Nigeria, TPT International, recently received laurels at the grand finale of the fourth Annual Brand and Marketing Conference of Brand Journalists Association of Nigeria (BJAN), organized to reward outstanding brands and service providers across the business sectors and industries which held in Lekki, Lagos.

StarTimes was awarded the Most Rewarding Brand (Sales Promotion), for its Copa America campaign as well as a special nominee for ‘Most Impressive Customer Care’ Award while TPT emerged most Media Friendly Public Relations Agency of the Year.

The colourful ceremony was attended by many dignitaries and business leaders, including representatives from leading household names such as StarTimes, Stanbic IBTC, CBN, NBC, NCC, Fidelity bank, nTel and others.

Speaking after receiving the awards, StarTimes Head of PR, Israel Bolaji, said: “StarTimes is so excited to be recognized and awarded by BJAN for its excellent offerings to subscribers in Nigeria. This is another high-profile award we are getting this year and this will further propel us to do more. We will not spare any effort to offer rich, diverse and high quality digital television experience to Nigerian and African viewers.

“StarTimes will continue to offer subscribers the best in class of pay TV experience with world class channels for drama, sports, kiddies, news, music and religion. We are keen to continuously enhance access and improve digital television experience for our subscribers,” he added.

Chairman and Lead Strategist, TPT International, Adetokunboh Modupe, commended the organizers of the awards and explained that the honours remained a confirmation of the agency’s watchword: ‘Challenging the Logic to achieve the magic’.

He said: “Obviously, our edge in the industry is our creative solution to client briefs. We believe in innovation and professionalism.  In today’s PR world, content is a major driver of perception and for us at TPT, we are not unmindful of this global trend, which is actually what makes technologically driven platforms like the social media very effective in conversation orchestration.

“However, the combination of traditional media and technology-backed platforms helps to deliver a trado-social impact that we consistently deliver for our clients.”

The award, according to Goddie Ofose, the Chairman of BJAN, is aimed at rewarding excellence in the fields of public relations, advertising and marketing communication.

The Brand Journalists’ Association of Nigeria is the umbrella body of practicing journalists covering Brands, Public Relation, and Marketing Communication beats in Nigeria.
