According to the General Manager, Brands, and Communication, MTN Nigeria, Richard Iweanoge: “Every Nigerian deserves a positive turnaround in their lives and we believe opportunities abound in and around the individual; but the opportunities are only potent when we choose to bring them to life.
“We are simply saying, ‘Don’t look too far; the opportunities you seek are closer than you think’.The combination of these is what we speak to when we turn it up.
“We want every Nigerian to remember that in whatever they have chosen to pursue, we are that brand that will provide the support for them to attain those dreams and aspirations.”
As Dakore succinctly put it, while addressing the audience at the media unveil, “Look within and identify those talents within you; then project it to the world. MTN is giving us access to the world. Who are you and what do you have within you? Turn it up!”
