An Edo-based iron welder, Osaze Osemwegie, and Lagos-based export trader, Afeez Oseni, expressed exuberant joy as they showered gratitude on telecommunications service provider, Globacom, for the brand new Kia Rio cars they each won in the ongoing customer appreciation promo, Joy Unlimited Extravaganza.
While Osaze’s car prize was presented to him at an impressive ceremony at Gloworld, Mission Road , Benin, on Tuesday, Oseni received his own Kia Rio at the Gloworld shop, Allen Avenue, Ikeja, the same day.
Both 45-year-old Osemwegie and his wife, Blessing, expressed profound gratitude to Globacom. He said, “I never thought I could drive a brand new car this year. I am a welder. There is no way I would have been able to afford the car but God has used Glo to fulfil one of my life ambitions. Thank you Glo”.
On his part, 38-year-old Oseni said, “I did not believe it. I was called by Glo customer care that I won a car in the Glo promo and it was not until the car was presented to me a few minutes ago that I believed it was real. Glo has blessed me, a clearing agent of imported used cars with a brand new car, which happens to be my first car. It is indeed a big surprise. To God be the glory”.
Apart from the cars winners, about 50 lucky subscribers won expensive home appliances including fridges, power generators and television sets in Benin while Lagos recorded 64 winners.
Speaking at the occasion, the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Mr. Phillip Shuaibu who was the special guest of honour at the occasion described Globacom as a company which all Nigerians should be proud of. He said the company has consistently shown that it is a Nigerian company with the interest of Nigerians at heart.
“Glo is a company that every well- meaning Nigerian will be proud to associate with as a result of its interesting products and services and the empowerment projects it is known for”, he noted.
Also speaking at the Lagos event, a member of Lagos Sate House of Assembly, Hon. Adedamola Kasumu stated that Globacom as a corporate entity has done well in Nigeria. He said “Glo keeps giving back to Nigerians and that it is well appreciated. We thank the company for putting smiles on the faces of the winners present here today, especially now that we are approaching xmas”.
Akinsola Williams, Glo Regional Activation Manager, Lagos who represented Globacom at the event said “ In the remaining days of this year, many more Nigerian homes will feel the joy of this promotion. 8 more brand new cars will be given out making a total of 10 cars before the end of the year. Also to be given out in the next two weeks are hundreds of television sets, refrigerators and power generators in prize presentation events to be held in Ibadan, Abuja, Jos, Kaduna, Onitsha, Uyo, Warri and other cities. Thousands more will also win the daily prizes of Glo freebies”.
