A civil engineer, Ikenna Adiele, who won the first car prize in Globacom’s ongoing Joy Unlimited Extravaganza promotion, told the excited crowd which gathered to witness the prize-presentation event in Port Harcourt on Thursday that the telecom company had lifted him up.
The Abia State-born engineer received his Kia Rio car prize at an event held at Gloworld, Aba Road, along with 80 other subscribers to the network who went home with household appliances such as television sets, generators and refrigerators.
“Glo has lifted me up and made me a car owner. I am very excited and I don’t know what to say. I saw the advert and I decided to participate by dialing the “611” promo code after which I started recharging my phone. Lo and behold, after about two weeks, I got a call from Glo customer service number 121, and after confirming my identity, I was told I won a brand new Kia car. I could not believe my ears. This is the biggest gift in my life and my first car. I will forever remain with Glo network. I will keep the car for my personal use”, Adiele declared.
Winners of the household items were equally excited. Some of them who spoke to newsmen at the ceremony thanked Globacom for the opportunity provided for Nigerians to win what they described as perfect Christmas gifts through the promo. Paschal Oyedo, a Port Harcourt- based lawyer, noted “I did not believe it until I got to Glo office and saw the generator. This is exciting. I will take the generator at home to the office and keep this brand new one for the enjoyment of my family at home. Glo has been good to Nigerians”.
A refrigerator winner, Paul Okoh, a retired civil servant, now a farmer in Port Harcourt said, also spoked in like manner. “I am overjoyed, I have always believed in Glo. They always give quality prizes. I received a Glo refrigerator today. Kudos to Globacom for my Christmas gift”.
The representative of the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC), Mr.Walson Dambo, who congratulated the winners said, “our presence here today signifies the credibility of this promo”.
Globacom’s Regional Manager, Port Harcourt, Mr. Augustine Mamuro, restated the company’s resolve to give out over 500,000 prizes in the Joy Unlimited Extravaganza promo including cars, household appliances, data prizes and ring back tunes. He added that subscribers are required to recharge their Glo lines with a minimum of N500 to qualify for the weekly draws, while N2,000 recharge in a calendar month qualifies them for the monthly draws where the grand prize of 5 brand new Kia Saloon cars will be won by lucky subscribers across the country every month throughout the duration of the promotion.
Rivers State Commissioner of Sports, Hon Boma Iyaye, who commended Globacom for always giving Nigerians opportunities to win wonderful prizes stated that the company had contributed immensely to improving the state’s GDP through its businesses with local dealers and employment of the citizens.
