STB McCann, Centrespread, Noah’s Ark Jostle For Airtel Account

STB McCann, Centrespread, Noah’s Ark are currently jostling for the multi-billion naira Airtel Nigeria advertising account.

According to industry sources, Centrespread and STB McCann have been joined Noah’s Ark to compete for the blue chip account.

In 2013, STB McCann won the account. Two years before then, O&M dropped the Airtel Nigeria account on Prima Garnett Ogilvy’s laps following the acquisition of the GSM network operator then known as Zain Nigeria by Bharti Airtel.

The telecom company's PR account recently moved to CMC Connect, a Lagos base communications company.
