big brands in Nigeria. It was also pretty huge for some top celebrities.  There seemed to be a rush for celebrity
endorsement in May, more than it has been in any of the past months.

Quite a number of stars got lucky by having big
names sign them on with mouth-watering deals. Some amounts were specified, some
were just speculations while some were totally undisclosed.
