Nigerian Singer, Adekunle Gold Threatens Legal Action As Bank Uses His ‘First Class Giveaway’ In Ad Campaign

-

 


Nigerian music star, Adekunle Almoruf Kosoko popularly known as Adekunle Gold, AG Baby has voiced his displeasure after a prominent bank allegedly used his viral ‘first-class giveaway’ initiative in an advertising campaign without his consent.

Adekunle Gold had launched a giveaway to reward individuals with first-class degrees, giving them cash prizes in recognition of their academic excellence.

The bank seemingly capitalized on the trend, incorporating it into their promotional message without the singer’s consent

The bank message read:

“AG Baby no send you first class gift? No worries, ALAT’s got you covered. Enjoy up to 70% off your favorite brands this weekend via eVouchers on the ALAT app – it’s no crime to not have a first-class degree.”

In response to this, the singer questioned the bank’s approach, asking when they started using his initiative and warning that his lawyers would be in touch.

He wrote, “Dear @wemabank @alat_ng, when did this start? You’ll be hearing from my people.”

My relationship with Linc is over. No hard feelings at all. I am very sad but in all things we thank God.”   Earlier, Linc announced that he is choosing peace over a "landmine" union after Yinka released May Edochie's phone number, which sparked retaliatory actions from May's supporters.   Linc and Yinka have unfollowed each other on Instagram.   The union between Linc, one of the sons of legendary actor Peter Edochie, and Yinka was announced earlier this month by Dele Momodu, the publisher of Ovation magazine.   However, shortly after the announcement, Yinka began publicly criticising May Edochie, the estranged wife of her new brother-in-law, Yul Edochie. This prompted backlash and threats from May's fans.
