Port Harcourt welcomes Coca-Cola Wozzaah in pomp, ceremony

Port Harcourt, Rivers State, South-South, has become the first Nigerian City after South Africa to welcome the new product termed ‘Coca-Cola Wozzaaah’, said to be a sugar-less refreshment from the famous stable.

The unveiling of the new product attracted a world of Gen-Z for whom it was designed to the Pleasure Park on the popular Aba Road in Port Harcourt, where top musicians and hype men frolicked from afternoon till late evening last weekend.

The popular beverage company unveiled the new brand which it says is a limited edition.

Officials said that it is designed to appeal to the teeming Gen Z consumers in Africa and to also redefine refreshment among youths and other consumers of the product.

In her introduction and product description, Soji Omoigui, the Frontline Director of Marketing, Coca-Cola Nigeria, described the Coca-Cola Wozzaah as a limited edition flavour, saying it is inspired by the African and Nigerian culture as well as a commitment to innovation, to excite consumers.

She also stated that as it is expected of limited flavour, products or edition, Coca-Cola Wozzaah will last for only short time on the shelf. She urged consumers to hit the market for the ‘Wozzaah Limited Edition’, saying it meets the needs and aspiration of all who love the African and Nigerian culture and flavours.
