ALIMOTU SHADIAT

The first car winner in the on-going Festival of Joyloyalty reward promo by Globacom received the key to a brand new Kia car in Ibadan on Thursday, November 17, 2022.

Mrs. Adeife Abiodun-Adeyemi, a 34-year old events planner, led the pack of Glo subscribers who received their prizes at a well-attended ceremony held at the new ultra-modern Gloworld at Ring Road, Ibadan.

The event was attended by the Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Chief Adebayo Lawal; Commissioner for Trade and Investments, Chief Bayo Lawal; the Chairman, Ibadan South West Local Government, Honourable Kehinde Akande, and some members of the state executive council.

Speaking after receiving the keys to the car, Mrs. Abiodun-Adeyemi, said the prize came as a pleasant surprise. “Glo has always been my business hotline, so I usually recharge heavily on the number even before the promo. When I learnt that Glo was rewarding its subscribers, I opted in by dialing *611# and also intensified my recharges. I am happy that my loyalty to Globacom over the years has paid off”, she said.

Other winners of various other choice items including power generating sets, sewing machines and rechargeable fans also received their prizes at the presentation ceremony. Mr. Temitope Salako, who operates a business centre, and who won a sewing machine said Globacom had provided an answer to his prayer through the prize as he planned to give the sewing machine to his sister who is a fashion designer.

For Oyindamola Alabi, who is majoring in Agriculture at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, “it was a lie until I received my prize and I must say I am grateful to Glo”. Dolapo Aremu, a mother of one who won a rechargeable fan, thanked Globacom for the privilege of winning the prize.

The Oyo State Deputy Governor, Chief Adebayo Lawal, in his remarks lauded Globacom for empowering its subscribers through its loyalty reward promos, saying that the company had made life better for its subscribers, not only through its products and services, but also through its various social responsibility schemes.

Speaking at the event, Globacom’s Regional Sales Manager in Oyo State, Mr. Ikechukwu Onuekwusi, disclosed that the next prize-presentation event would be held in Abuja on Friday, and that from there Globacom would take the Festival of Joy to other cities around the country.

He advised voice and data subscribers who wish to participate in the promo to dial the dedicated short code *611# and keep recharging (voice and data) during the promo period in order to qualify to win any of the prizes on offer. “The more they recharge, the higher their chances of winning”, he added.

“Subscribers who desire to win any of the houses courtesy of Glo Festival of Joy must make data subscription(s) of at least N20,000 during the promo period, while those who are interested in winning cars should make a monthly recharge of N10,000; N5,000 monthly recharge for power generators, N2,500 monthly recharge for sewing machines and N500 weekly to win rechargeable fans”, Onuekwusi further said.
