But that attempt failed when the award-winning rapper asked for a $1m endorsement fee. Now, we hear that Unity Bank Plc has had talks with Ice Prince about making him the face of the bank, an opportunity that many artistes would jump at. But Ice Prince, according to reports, insisted on a N300m endorsement fee or no deal. Taking a cue from Glo, the bank quickly took slippers, or shoes, in hands and ran away... ... sigh ...
