Nigeria Rugby Football Federation (NRFF) Unveils Newly Redesigned Logo

The Nigeria Rugby Football Federation (NRFF) (www.NigeriaRugby.org) has unveiled a newly redesigned logo that embodies the values of strength, unity, and progress, reflecting the federation’s mission to promote and develop rugby as a sport in Nigeria.

 

The new logo features a horse symbol, stripes, and a bold green color. The horse symbolizes speed, strength, and agility, which are key attributes of a rugby player. The stripes evoke the image of a patterned rugby playing field, paying homage to the sport’s heritage and tradition. The green color represents growth, harmony, and nature, signifying the federation’s commitment to developing the sport, promoting teamwork, and fostering a connection with the natural environment.

The NRFF has continuously worked on repositioning the federation to meet the growing demand of an evolving society and cater to the needs of the youth demographic that views sport as a means of empowerment and cultural exchange. This newly redesigned logo is intended to provide a clearer understanding of what the federation stands for.

The elements incorporated into the design highlight our commitment to strength, unity, and progress, which are at the core of our mission

NRFF President Dr. Ademola Are commented, “Our new logo is more than just a symbol; it represents our dedication to fostering the development of rugby in Nigeria. The elements incorporated into the design highlight our commitment to strength, unity, and progress, which are at the core of our mission.”

The federation aims to leverage this new logo as part of its broader strategy to enhance the visibility and appeal of rugby across Nigeria. By integrating modern design elements with traditional symbols, the NRFF hopes to inspire both current and future generations of rugby players and fans.

“As we unveil this new logo, we are also reaffirming our commitment to growth and development within the sport,” added Opeoluwa Runsewe, CEO of Flovale Consulting, NRFF’s corporate partner. “The redesign is a step forward in our efforts to make rugby a prominent sport in Nigeria, aligning with our goals of fostering financial stability and achieving significant milestones in the coming years.”

The NRFF’s initiative to redesign its logo is part of a comprehensive effort to ensure that rugby in Nigeria continues to thrive. By promoting the sport’s values and heritage, the federation aims to create a lasting impact on the country’s sporting landscape.

The new logo will be featured prominently in all NRFF events, marketing materials, and communications, symbolizing a new era for Nigerian rugby. The federation invites all stakeholders, including players, coaches, fans, and sponsors, to join in celebrating this milestone and supporting the ongoing development of rugby in Nigeria.

post-image

 

Nigeria’s energy sector is currently grappling with significant disruptions following the removal of fuel subsidies by the current administration. This policy shift has led to widespread market changes and subsequent price adjustments, causing a ripple effect across the country. Amidst this evolving crisis, Anayo Nwosu, a seasoned investment banker, has weighed in on the matter, shedding light on the complexities surrounding the current energy situation and the role of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) in addressing the challenges.

Nwosu emphasized that the price consumers pay for fuel at filling stations is determined by two key factors: the cost of refining the fuel and the cost of transporting it to the final point of sale. Ideally, he explained, residents of Lekki, Victoria Island, Epe, and the broader Lagos region should enjoy lower fuel prices due to their proximity to the Dangote Refinery.

IVM Electric Cars Sold Out After Unconventional Test Drive Strategy

post-image

 

The first batch of Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing (IVM) electric cars has officially sold out, thanks to an unconventional yet effective marketing strategy led by Cornell Osigwe, the company’s head of Corporate Communications.

In a bold move, Osigwe posted an unedited video on social media, showcasing his test drive of the new IVM electric vehicles. The video, recorded with background noise and Osigwe seemingly making calls, was not a polished marketing piece. But, as a seasoned media and PR expert, Osigwe knew this would grab the public’s attention.

“Any experienced media person knows that what sells in news is bad news, not good news,” Osigwe explained. “The criticism that the video would generate was bound to make it trend nationally, giving the car more publicity than a professionally edited video could have achieved.”

Despite the video showing a vehicle still undergoing its final round of quality control checks and not yet certified for…
