Yomi Olaniwun
Yomi Olaniwun, a consummate marketing practitioner is the founder and Chief Engagement Officer, BB Buzz. He managed local and global brands at different times of his career while working with SO&U. He led the project team for the launch of Guinness New Pack (Colourful world of More Concert) as one of the highpoints of his sojourn in paid employment. He fielded a couple of questions as BB Buzz Chief. 

What is BBBuzz all about? 
Bold Brand Buzz Ltd is a Digital Marketing Agency. We used blogging as an entry strategy. We offer Social Media & Influencer Marketing services. These also covers publicity, damage control and media monitoring. Our blog help brands speak the language the youths understand. 85% of our social media followers are less than 30yrs.
 BB Buzz means BOLD BRAND BUZZ. We needed the acronym BB, because it was the most attractive “digital speak” as at then. Most people still think BB stands for Blackberry. BB Buzz was registered as a business on the 5th of November 2012 but it didn’t become operational until two years after. Even after the two years, it was only the blogging arm of the business that was functional.

Professor Johnbull Frowns At Indecent Dressing In Episode 8, Makes AY To Drop Sagging


Indecent dressing by young men was the focus of Episode eight of the Glo-sponsored T.V drama series, Professor Johnbull which was televised last Tuesday on NTA International, NTA Network and NTA on Startimes
The eighth episode titled Happening Guys exposes the foolishness and irrationality of ‘sagging’, a dress code perpetuated by young men in the name of fashion.
The episode opens with Dudus (Ayo Makun) and Elizabeth (Queen Nwokoye) in Churchill’s room having a conversation. Professor Johnbull enters the room unannounced, speaking in his usual grandiloquent manner and is taken aback, seeing the young man all alone with his daughter in Churchill’s room.
He queries the man’s mission and is alarmed to see his pair of jeans trousers pulled below his butts. Speaking in an American accent and slang, he tells the professor that ‘sagging’ is the latest fashion trend and that the professor is of the medieval era.
