Oil & Gas Engineer Wins First House in Glo Promo in Lagos
A Lagos-based oil and gas engineer, Mr. Moses Tsado, yesterday emerged the first winner of a premium house in Globacom’s on-going Festival of Joy consumer-reward promotion targeted at High Networth customers of the digital solutions company.
57-year-old Tsado, a director of Antan Producing Limited, emerged in the first draw held in Lagos on Tuesday. He received the keys to the house from Oba Ojomu of Lakowe, Oba Abdulhakkem Olusegun Ojomu, brand influencer, Nnenna Ekere, and Glo officials at its location in Ajah, Lagos, yesterday..
The indigene of Niger State, who narrated his experience, said he was very excited he got a call from Glo officials but was skeptical in view of rampant scams in the country.
According to him, “I got a call from a staff member of Globacom telling me that I won a house in the ongoing promo and I was very excited about it, but my instinct prompted me to crosscheck so that I will not fall into the hands of scammers. Immediately, I called a good friend who works in Globacom and he assured me that all was well. It was after the confirmation that I drove down to meet the officials of the company and the rest is history. To God be the glory”.
The father of two, who has not made up his mind on how he will use the house, explained that Globacom had shown its total commitment towards the welfare of Nigerians, adding that, in the last 20 years, the company had rolled out many promotions that had benefitted Nigerians immensely.
At the event, Globacom’s Retail Chief, Lagos, Mr. Lawrence Odediran, said the presentation was in fulfillment of the company’s commitment to Nigerians when the promo was unveiled. He added that It was also a confirmation of the company’s resolve to constantly add value to the lives of its subscribers.
