The world heavyweight boxing champion, Anthony Joshua has been unveiled as a brand ambassador of telecommunications giant, Globacom.
Joshua, who was born by Nigerian parents, was unveiled when the telco presented its new business direction to media executives in Lagos on Friday.

“It is a new dawn in communication. You will recall that we have since launched in the year 2003, we have been supporting the music, comedy and movie industries in Nigeria, and other African countries.
“Many of the musicians, comedians, actors and actresses have at one time or the other been chosen as Glo ambassadors thus projecting the continent a refreshing light through thought provoking and inspiring African movies and music.
