The
trio of Ill Rhymz, Ebuka Obi Ochendu and Yemi Blaq were recently unveiled as
Gulder brand ambassadors as part of activities celebrating the unveiling of the
world’s largest poster.
The
colorful ceremony was staged at the Okpara Square in the Coal City of Enugu.
The newly selected brand ambassadors expressed their pleasure at the recent
connection with the beer brand.
Speaking
about the epoch-making event as well as his recent status as a brand
ambassador, Ill Rhymz said: ‘‘it feels wonderful to be Enugu and to witness
what Gulder is doing. It is a great honor for me to be identified with Gulder
because it is a brand that makes the Ultimate man.’’
Ebuka
Obi-Uchedu, who spoke in Igbo, said his trip to Enugu is like coming home. He
said: ‘‘it feels great to be in Enugu to see what Gulder is doing. As we all
know, Gulder is the beer for the ultimate man and I am also happy to be a brand
ambassador of Gulder.”
Yemi
Blaq also applauded Gulder for the milestone achievement in breaking an
existing world record.
Past
winners of Gulder Ultimate Search were not left out of the fray as Dominic
Mudabai, (2007 winner), Chinedu Ubachukwu (2014 winner) and Ifunnaya Onike
(Last female contestant standing in 2013) played a major role at the event.
Currently,
Gulder holds the record of the world’s largest poster with an area of
5.3mSqaure, effectively toppling the former record of 4.7msquare achieved in
Kochi, India on the 27th of June, 2015.
In
his welcome address, the Managing Director, Nigerian Breweries, Mr. Nicolaas Vervelde
recounted Gulder’s momentous stride in the beer market and the company’s choice
of Enugu as the rallying point. He stated that ‘‘since the commissioning of our
second brewery in Aba in 1957, the South East has been a solid base for our
operations and a veritable home to our brands. It is in continuation of this
robust relationship with the South East that we are here in Enugu courtesy of
Gulder the ultimate lager beer’’.
