The new Legend Extra Stout from the stable of the Nigeria Breweries Plc, has once again dished out prizes to its loyal consumers at its monthly taste acquisition programme tagged “Legend Real Deal Night” held at the Nite Shift Coliseum, Ikeja.

The all night free entertainment show, which promised quality rewards for loyal consumers of Legend Extra Stout, was attended by a large number of male and female fun seekers and brand enthusiasts of Legend. Among music stars in attendance were reggae crooners, Orits Wiliki, Ras Kimono, Alariwo and veteran actor, Taiwo Obileye.

There were free chilled bottles of Legend, good music from Coliseum Disc Jockey, comic relief from the Master of Ceremony, D-Don, abundant gifts from Legend, while the owner of the Coliseum, Mr. Ken Caleb-Olumense was all hands seeing to the customers’ satisfaction throughout the night. And at the end of the show, consumers were full of praises for the management of Nigerian Breweries Plc, brewers of Legend Extra Stout.

Those who went home with fantastic gift prizes include Mr. Bola Sule Abiola, younger brother of the late Chief MKO Abiola. He went home with 32″ LCD television as the star prize of the day but the prize was received on his behalf by top entertainment journalist, Mr. Funsho Arogundade. Another lucky winner was an Insurer, Mr. Henry Elu who won a home theatre music set while a publisher, Mr. Akinwunmi Dickson, Mr. Demola Akomolafe, Mr. Joel Ahajiyen, Blessing Ojaigbe and Captain Chris, a socialite and aircraft pilot went home with Samsung DVD each.

Speaking during the presentation of the prizes to the lucky winners, The Chief Steward, New Red Roof Restaurant and Bar, Mr. Ugo Offodile, commended Nigerian Breweries Plc for deeming it fit to give back to its consumers. He enjoined the entire winners at the event to make good use of the token prizes.

Explaining the idea behind the monthly show, the brand manager Legend Extra Stout Mr. Funso Ayeni stated that the monthly Legend Real Deal Nite at the Coliseum was “a consumer marketing promotion that the company has put in place to create a social convergence, a kind of work-life-balance for our customers and also an avenue to reward loyal consumers of Legend across the state. You see, the Legend we have now is different from what it used to be. It is a refined new blend of stout beverage that is far better than any brand of stout in the entire West Coast of Africa.

“Presently the Legend Real Deal Night is only happening in Lagos but we may consider extending the reward to our consumers in other parts of the country.”

According to Ayeni, Legend Extra Stout has continued to enjoy wide acceptability from consumers across the country because of its unique natural taste and attractive packaging.

He said Nigerian Breweries Plc will not relent in its efforts to make sure that it gives out the best and quality stout to its consumers.

Mr. Bola Abiola, the star prize winner, thanked the Nigerian Breweries Plc for the gift and pledged to always be a loyal consumer of Legend Extra Stout.

Mr. Demola Akomolafe, winner of Samsung DVD, said that this is his first time of coming to the event and was able to win something, adding that he will always remember the night.

The atmosphere was charged with fun and excitement when ace disc jockey, DJ Wolex mounted the console, mixing and dishing out contemporary Nigerian music.

One of the side attractions was a loud performance by an Abuja-based music diva D’Lizon who was backed by the Coliseum live band, The Shifters Band.

The next edition of Legend Real Deal Night comes up on the last Wednesday of May 2011at the same venue, The Niteshift Coliseum and it promises to be a swell experience for all brand loyalists of Legend Extra Stout.
