Ace copy writer and author, Akpo Daniyan has called it quit with Diamond Bank, a financial services company she joined not quite a year or thereabout.
Akpo has been a subject of incessant moves ever since she ditched her traditional agency side to embrace the more rewarding clients’ side.
Akpo like the rover has worked in virtually all top notch advertising agencies including Rosabel Leo Burnett, Prima Garnet, SO&U Saatchi & Saatchi among others. While in the industry, Akpo was the delight of most of her friends, senior colleagues and employers thanks to her brilliance, robust mind and well cultured personality. She became the more popular and celebrated when she released her first but unconventional book on Advertising: “I Have an Idea”.
At the height of the euphoria, Akpo, perhaps tired of the industry decided to move to the clients’ side. She opted for the telecoms industry by joining Globacom. Her sojourn in Glo was for a stint before she took the decision to pitch her tent with Etisalat in 2008 as one of the company’s pioneer staff.
In a rather curious circumstance, Akpo left the services of Etisalat where she functioned as Head of Advertising/Media. This move became another cross-industry move as her next port of call became the banking sector. She joined Diamond Bank. According to recent finding, Akpo has again moved from the bank where she worked as Head, Corporate Communications.
Why the incessant moves, what’s next or where is the next port of call? One is wont to ask energetic Akpo. {fcomments on}
