Team HIJO Communications was founded by Mihai Andrei Zaharia and Somayina Moju after recognizing a major gap in how many businesses in Nigeria approached marketing. Despite Nigeria’s economy being driven by entrepreneurship, many CEOs and brand owners lacked the strategic and technical marketing knowledge needed to grow, often reducing marketing to occasional social media posts or underestimating its importance entirely. Mihai founded HIJO to bridge this gap by combining strategy, storytelling, and technical execution to help businesses build scalable brands. Together, Mihai and Soma have built a team of 13 creatives, strategists, and media professionals delivering brand development, media production, and entertainment initiatives. The team supports client growth while also developing original platforms like Lightbearers and Anime Legacy Convention, advancing HIJO’s mission to build scalable African media, brands, and intellectual property.
