FUNNY FACE IN JOB SEARCH AT VODAFONE RED LAUNCH

Ghana’s number one comedian, Benson Nana Yaw Oduro Boateng, popularly known as Funny Face and Anita Erskine presented an ‘odd couple’ as they hosted Vodafone Ghana’s launch of ‘Red’, which is Ghana’s first range of weekly and monthly integrated bundles that offer subscribers various incentives and opportunities.

Funny Face and Anita Erskine did a splendid job at Vodafone’s “Red” launch, which was a night of ‘red’ pageantry.

Funny Face made it obvious from the start of the programme that he was in a job search as Entertainment Director for Vodafone Ghana. He actually announced a name change from Funny Face to Funny Red, if that would make his job search at Vodafone (with a brand colour of red) easier.

The ace comedian spiced the night’s event with jokes, and his co-master of ceremony, Anita Erskine, could not help but at certain stages match him in equal measure with light hearted comments.

Funny talked about no longer being able to maintain his US$ 3000 hair cut sponsored by his footballer friends because they are away playing football in the European leagues, with the stylish hair falling off like chicken feathers, whilst he waits for his footballer friends to come back to Town to help fund the maintenance of his hair.

At the red launch, the Chief Executive Officer of Vodafone, Haris Broumidis said the “Red” is a new product by the company to give comfort to suffering Ghanaians who are dissatisfied with services provided by other communication operators.

He said “consumers in Ghana have suffered the inconvenience of carrying multiple SIM cards for too long. This is because they have not found the value they deserve from one mobile operator. We have introduced red to help put an end to the hassle and nuisance of carrying multiple SIM cards”.

The new range of weekly and monthly integrated bundles includes four unique plans: ‘Red Life Weekly’ at GH¢ 5 per week, ‘Red Rush’ at GH¢ 20 per month, ‘Red Hot’ at GH¢ 50 per month, and ‘Red Classic’ at GH¢ 100 per month.
