Suspended television quiz show, Who Want to Be a Millionaire, will return to air on Sunday, September 3 with Airopay as its new sponsor. However, the show returns with a lot of modifications.
Topmost in the changes in the show Who Want to Be a Millionaire is the sponsor, as Telecommunication Company MTN has been dropped for Airopay.
Airopay is an international payment operator offering a secure, fast and inexpensive way to send and receive money through bank accounts and mobile wallets anywhere in the world.
Asides the change in sponsor, the likelihood of a change in presenter of Who Want to Be a Millionaire is very possible with Frank Edoho likely to step aside.
Speaking in a chat with www.theoctopusnews.com, Femi Ayeni, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and Chairman, Utima Limited, producers of the show Who Want to Be a Millionaire confirmed the likely change in its presenter saying that “there is the possibility of a new presenter. However, we are still talking to Frank Edoho. At this time, he wants to work on other things, but we will see. If we have to part ways, it will be amicably,” Ayeni said.
On the partnership with Airopay, he said that it is one which he expects to span a very long time.
The new Who Want to Be a Millionaire with Airopay which is in its 14 session is definitely now bigger, richer and indeed better.
In 2004, Nigeria witnessed the phenomenal entry of the world renowned game show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? (WWTBAM), produced by Ultima Limited, trail blazers in the entertainment industry. The show could be tagged “Edutainment” as it not only provided a platform to educate people but was bursting with relishing moments. The show is designed for the whole family and with the encore for more, MTN took over the sponsorship of the show, making it bigger, richer and better by doubling the money tree. The huge success of the show gave birth to the Sunday episodes in 2008, giving MTN a chance to enrich more lives.
