Xclusive Update: MTN And ETISALAT At Loggerheads As Saka Ports To MTN In New TV Commercial

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://cdn.360nobs.pagenanny.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/saka_don_port.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="http://cdn.360nobs.pagenanny.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/saka_don_port.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Saka, has been a house-hold name at Etisalat for long. I once met SAKA, while at Lagos State University. Saka, whose real name is <b>Hafiz (Afeez) Oyetoro</b> is 
one actor that is synonymous to comedy. Popularly called by fans as 
Saka, a character he played in the much celebrated TV comedy soap, <i><b>House Apart</b></i>,
 the slim bodied and fair in complexion father of three is sure one 
person that is a strict disciplinarian, in contrast to the character he 
plays in most movies.<br />
<br />
He is a lecturer at The <b><i>Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education</i></b>. He’s a very capable teacher and actor. He’s been a popular name, face and <b>brand</b> at <b>Etisalat</b>
 for long and has appeared in different TV Commercials (TVC) for 
Etisalat. Folks usually enjoy watching him and his very funny clips.<br />
<b>Number portability  </b>allows you to move from your 
existing network to another and has been in the pipeline for a while. 
NCC announced it open to the public on Monday. Many folks have said that
 MTN is going to be the worst hit as many MTN subscribers have 
complained about the unsatisfactory service they have been receiving.<br />
<br />
I’m sure MTN noticed this and came up with a strategy to hit a 
particular network at the jugular.<br />
<br />
They wasted no time at doing that.<br />
<br />
They started with an ad that I saw in the newspaper last week where 
MTN used this slogan where they referred to Etisalat. In the ad, MTN 
said this<br />
<blockquote>
<i>For instance, if you are currently on Etisalat and 
wishes to port to MTN, you ail go to an MTN store nearest to you and 
start the porting process.</i></blockquote>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="mtn_etisalat" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-141823" height="413" src="http://cdn.360nobs.pagenanny.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/mtn_etisalat.jpg" width="550" /></div>
Can you see what MTN did there? Etisalat was shot in the heart. They 
used Etisalat as the example of a network that people may want to port 
from to MTN. Airtel or GLO wasn’t mentioned.<br />
As if that was not enough, they released a TVC this morning using <b>SAKA</b>,
 a name that has been popular with Etisalat’s TVC,. Not only that SAKA 
was seen as porting to MTN while dancing around, but something happened 
just at the mid point of the TVC. Take your time and watch it, you will 
see that the colour of SAKA’s attire was green–the colour Etisalata 
uses. All the while the character singing was backing the camera wearing
 a green attire. As the character tuned back, it was revealed that it is
 SAKA!!! and the attire also changed from green to Yellow–the colour of 
MTN. I DON PORT O!!!<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QUVdnzC19oU" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
SAKA kept singing that he has ported and asked everyone else to port. Awesome Ad.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #888888;">Is SAKA saying he has terminated his contract with Etisalat and moved to MTN?</span></i></div>
 MTN must have seen the number of people who are ready to leave their
 network and started this campaigns in earnest. I am waiting to see how 
this will play out and the response that Etislat will launch.<br />
<br />
<i id="__mceDel">Are you currently satisfied with your own mobile network provider or are you going to port like SAKA? </i>
