Mastercard Kwik Delivery

A partnership that will enable cardholders of Mastercard to get discounts on all services offered by Kwik Delivery has been signed by both parties.

It was gathered that all Mastercard cardholders can benefit from a 10 per cent discount on Kwik Delivery services, subject to terms and conditions, provided that they pay such services with their Mastercard. It was further disclosed that discounts are applied as credits on the customer’s in-app wallet.

With over 70 million customers in Nigeria, Mastercard leads in the debit card market in the country and Kwik Delivery on its part offers its customers high quality and cheap dispatch service.

It is believed that the new partnership will help the two organisations to give their respective customers something to enjoy for their loyalty.

Mastercard, originally known as Interbank, which then changed to Master Charge, was created by an alliance of several regional bank card associations in response to the BankAmericard issued by Bank of America which later became the Visa credit card issued by Visa Inc.

Mastercard Worldwide was a cooperative owned by the more than 25,000 financial institutions that issue its branded cards.

On its part, Kwik Delivery is a leading last-mile delivery tech company launched in Lagos in 2019. It enables Nigerian businesses to deliver their goods faster, on-time and with the visibility provided by technology.

The company boasts of parcel delivery within 2 hours max in the urban areas where it operates, especially Lagos, with the promise to add more areas to its network coverage.

BMA Tasks Alumni Network on Collective Impact

BMA Alumni Network

By Adedapo Adesanya

The Brand Management Academy (BMA) held its highly anticipated inaugural Alumni Network ceremony on Saturday, June 14, bringing together some of Africa’s brightest minds in brand and commercial leadership.

Hosted in Lagos, the event officially launched a growing community of over 450 marketing and sales professionals trained by BMA, cutting across key industries including FMCG, tech, finance, telecommunications, and manufacturing.

The ceremony attracted top-tier professionals, C-suite executives, and emerging talents, all bonded by the Academy’s shared mission to drive brand excellence and leadership across the continent.

“This is more than just a reunion,” said Olusegun X. Akinyemiju, the newly inaugurated President of the BMA Alumni Network. “It’s the birth of a movement — a strategic community of commercial leaders committed to raising the bar for brand and business performance in Africa. Our collective impact starts now.”

The event featured inspiring keynote sessions, alumni showcases, industry spotlights, and a vibrant after-party that captured the energy and spirit of the BMA community.

The executive committee of the Alumni Network was also formally unveiled. The team had emerged earlier in February following a fiercely contested election that drew attention from marketing professionals and external observers alike, highlighting how creative campaign strategies can be deployed even in electoral processes.

Speaking at the event, Dr. Abiodun Ajiborode, Founder of BMA, emphasized the importance of the Alumni Network to the Academy’s long-term vision.

“The alumni network was always part of the plan. We didn’t just want to produce skilled professionals, we wanted to build an ecosystem of brand custodians. A platform where leaders can grow, collaborate, and influence the industries they serve.”

The Network is already gearing up for impact, with plans for mentorship programs, thought leadership sessions, community outreach, and strategic partnerships to drive marketing innovation across Africa.

The inaugural ceremony was more than a celebration, it was a declaration of intent. The BMA Alumni Network is stepping into its new chapter with clarity, purpose, and momentum.

“We are just getting started,” said President Akinyemiju. “The real power of BMA is not only in what we learned, but in what we will build together.”

The iconic chili oil from Rwanda, Akabanga Chili Oil, will now be solely distributed in Nigeria by Akabanga Lagos, following the 100 per cent stake acquisition of Akabanga 4U Limited.

To deepen market penetration and create strategic partnerships to position Akabanga Chili Oil as a household staple in Nigerian homes and restaurants, Akabanga Lagos is launching an aggressive dealer mobilisation campaign across the 36 states of the federation, aimed at boosting nationwide availability and visibility of the product.

Crafted in Rwanda by the renowned Sina Gérard/Entreprise Urwibutso, Akabanga Chili Oil is a premium blend of yellow African habanero peppers, sunseed oil, and natural spices.

Available in 20ml and 100ml bottles, the oil is cherished for its distinct smoky, earthy flavour and versatility perfect as a condiment or cooking oil across a variety of local and international dishes.

“Nigerians are known for their love of flavour-packed, spicy food, and Akabanga hits the right note with just a few drops.

“This acquisition is a dream realized. Having championed this product in Nigeria for years, we are honoured to now lead its national distribution.

“Fondly called Rwanda’s little secret, we’re excited to help more Nigerians discover its magic,” the founder of Akabanga Lagos, Ms Temitope Mudabai, stated.

Also, the founder of Sina Gérard/Entreprise Urwibutso, Mr Sina Gerard, said, “Nigeria boasts one of the largest consumer markets in Africa and is well known for its mouthwatering and diverse gastronomy.
