Introducing him to the company’s operations, Fapohunda said the movie superstar resonates with one of the company’s core values, which is excellence. He further said: “The objective of this partnership with Ali Nuhu is to use his voice to educate our Northern consumers about the importance of quality sleep to their overall wellbeing and the role Mouka products play in this equation”.
Shedding more light on the similarity between the Mouka brand and its Brand Ambassador, Mouka’s Chief Commercial Officer, Mr Dimeji Osingunwa said: “The collaboration between Ali Nuhu and the Mouka brand would be quite rewarding, as both parties share a mutual value of excellence. The Mouka brand is the market leader in the sleep industry, while Ali Nuhu is the king of Kannywood, a perfect combination to achieve Mouka’s business goals in northern Nigeria. We are delighted that we chose him”..
Responding, Nuhu, the elated Kannywood idol, said: “I am committed to doing my best to take the Mouka brand to greater heights in Northern Nigeria through various initiatives in line with its mission of adding comfort to the lives of Nigerians”.
