Pepsi’s Nigeria World Cup Anthem: Naija All The Way
With the upcoming World Cup less than 10 days away, Pepsi released their Nigeria Anthem commercial “Naija All The Way”. The video includes Nigerian legends like Wizkid, Davido, Tiwa Savage, Jay Jay Okocha, Alex Iwobi, Victor Moses, and many others. #NaijaAllTheWay
Nigeria New World Cup Kits Set To Release 5/29
The new Nike Nigeria Super Eagles jerseys will release to the public on Tuesday May 29, 2018. According to reports, Nike has received over three million order of the new Nigeria jerseys. The jerseys will cost $85 USD at retail and can be ordered online or in store. You can read the full story here.
I think that amount of pre order jersey sales is a great thing because it shows brands that the African community will support great product. The African market gets overlooked compared to the Asia & Latin America markets in terms of emerging markets for brands and companies to do business. Hopefully, these numbers will persuade brands to do more collaborations, partnerships, and/or sponsorships with athletes & teams from the continent of Africa.
I was not aware of this presale, so I hopefully I can get my jersey next week.
NIGERIA NEW KITS FOR THE 2018 WORLD CUP
Earlier this year, Nike revealed the new Nigeria kits for the upcoming 2018 World Cup in Russia. At first I was not fan of these jerseys (since I was huge fan of the solid green uniforms Nike did previously). Two months later and I currently waiting to purchase my jersey.
Check out the 2018 Collection Reveal with members of the Nigerian National team: Wilfred Ndidi, Jon Obi Mikel, Alex Iwobi, & Kelechi Iheanacho
With less than 60 days to competition, we’re all excited to see this Super Eagles squad represent the Green White Green in their new kits. Let me know what you think of the kits.
