A famous marketing tag-line came in handy for French President Emmanuel Macron during his night out at Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s Afrika Shrine, when he was asked to relive his past experience as a patron at the hangout before he became president.
“What happens in the shrine remains in the shrine,” he said as the audience roared with laughter.
Macron showed an inquisitive hostess that he was street-smart as he quickly coined the tag-line from one of the famous slogans in modern tourism marketing – “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!”
NewsmakersNG understands that the emotional bond between Las Vegas and its customers is freedom.
Macron used to be a patron of the Shrine when he worked in Nigeria at the French Embassy in 2004.
Some of the memories of his six months stay in Lagos he relived when he met President Muhammadu Buhari in Abuja, including remembering attending a concert by Fela’s first son, Femi Kuti.
Rather than go down memory lane on Tuesday night, Macron threw the humorous line at the audience.
