Following up on which other Ghanaian Glo ambassador might have been dropped but not known to the media, Razz Newspaper got in touch with award winning musician, Ayigbe Edem \u2013 a Glo ambassador.<\/p>\n<p>Explaining why he was not featured in the latest Glo bill boards and commercials, he stated that his contract has ended. \u201cI haven\u2019t backed off from Glo. My contract has ended and it hasn\u2019t been renewed. I still have a good relationship with Glo but it\u2019s not formal\u201d Ayigbe Edem said.<\/p>\n<p>Edem explained that most of them (Glo ambassadors) have benefited a lot from the Glo deal but the aspect which has affected their visibility was a clause in their contract \u2013 they are not being permitted to perform on Glo\u2019s competitor\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we are to renew our contract with Glo, some of the changes that me and my management team are going to carefully look at is the clause of me not being able to perform on other platforms that are competitors to Glo.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to add that Ghanaians shouldn\u2019t blame Glo for that; we as musicians shouldn\u2019t blame Glo for that; we as musicians and our management went into the contract so I think in future, we have to look at making that amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Our Nigerian brothers who have signed onto Glo in Nigeria are able to perform on other Glo competitors platforms, which means, we Ghanaian musicians didn\u2019t do our homework well before signing the contract\u201d Edem admitted.<\/p>\n<p>He added that, he\u2019s also going to make sure that, he will be negotiating for a reasonably better fee than the previous money, because he\u2019s the most relevant artiste currently in the Ghanaian music industry and he\u2019s putting in more hard work to be able to move to number one, before the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the only Glo ambassador in Ghana that the media is aware has been retained or his contract renewed is award winning musician, Kwabena Kwabena. Razz Newspaper cannot tell how many of Glo\u2019s ambassadors the company has dropped.<\/p>\n<p>We are however arranging for an interview with one of the managers at Glo for more details from their quarters concerning their current corporate relationship on the other Ghanaian Glo ambassadors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: Razz Newspaper<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghanaian hip life musician, Ayigbe Edem, who is one of celebrities who were signed by Nigerian mobile telecommunication company, Globacom (Glo) as its ambassador has revealed to Razz Newspaper that he will renew his Glo contract on condition.
