On Thursday, March 10, 2022, leading beer brand, Trophy Lager rewarded some of its teeming consumers who participated in the ‘Trophy Stand by Me’ initiative.

The initiative came to an exciting end after enabling many creatives to express their talents month-on-month through genres such as poetry, music, painting, comedy skits, acting, dancing, short movie production, and others.

The creatives uploaded 60-second videos on social media to showcase their talent regarding the theme “Na Who Stand By Me, Be My Honourable” and received additional tasks while getting a monthly allowance of N100,000 for four months.

The 100 winners received a ₦100,000 allowance through a shortlisting process; this number was reduced to 70, then 40, before arriving at 20 participants. The top 20 were coached by industry leaders – Trophy brand ambassador, Femi Adebayo, popular rapper Tobechukwu Ejiofor, aka Illbliss and talent manager, Andrea Manuela Giaccaglia.

Upon rigorous assessment, three final winners were selected and awarded a one-million-naira contract each.

Today, we are excited to have achieved this goal through the crop of talented creatives you can see here and many others who have been inspired and equipped to harness their potential to good use.”
