Karo Goru Jonathan; President General of Igbudu Market, Warri, Chief Rume Kugberu; and representative of Ovie of Uvwie Kingdom, Chief Mike Okeneni, at the Thursday presentation of prizes to winners in Warri, Delta State, during which Mr Daniel Mayuku of Delta State Security Trust Fund who won a Toyota Prado also received his prize.

Mr. Daniel Mayuku, the Chairman of the Delta State Security Trust Fund, has taken home the first Toyota Prado prize in the ongoing Globacom’s Festival of Joy promotion. He becomes the first winner to receive the grand prize in the promotion.

Hon. Emomotimi Guwor, Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, and Chief Anthony Ofoni, Chairman of Uvwie Local Government Area, presented the keys of the brand-new SUV to Mr. Mayuku during an elaborate ceremony hosted by the company on Thursday, November 21 at Gloworld, Delta Mall, Warri. Friends, admirers and other Glo subscribers joined in the celebration which turned into a carnival in the city with electrifying performances by Ema Dance Troupe.

The 57-year-old Mayuku, who won in the promotion’s initial draw last Thursday in Warri, thanked the digital solutions provider for bringing joy his way in a grand style. Said he: “I thought it was a scam when I got the first call that I won a Prado in the Glo Festival of Joy promo, and I told the caller not to call me again. But after a short while, I began getting calls from friends, so I called my friends in Glo and they confirmed it. I was shocked and believed it to be a fraud. I asked for the car right away, and I was told to come to the Glo office for verification. The jeep has just been presented to me. Globacom is truly Nigerian, a network that delights its subscribers every year. They are still the best”.

Other choice prizes, including tricycles (Keke), power generating sets, sewing machines, and grinding machines were also taken home by other fortunate winners. Ovueve Efejiro, a native of Ughelli, Delta State, who won a Keke, expressed her gratitude to Glo, saying, “I just won Keke through the Festival of Joy promo. My family will benefit from this Keke. My brother will use it for commercial purposes right away.” Felix Gabriel, one of the winners of power generating sets, expressed gratitude to Globacom for always remembering Nigerians every year in its annual promotional activities.

Hon. Emomotimi Guwor, the speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, who was the special guest at the event, affirmed that “Globacom is a network that is known for giving. Over the years, many Nigerians have been empowered by Glo. The people of my constituency in Warri South West and entire Delta people are grateful to Glo. We will continue to use Glo and I also want to be part of the winners one day soon. So, I will ensure that my line is always on and ready. Kudos to Glo and our own Dr. Mike Adenuga”.

The Head of Licensing and Operation, National Lottery Regulatory Commission, Delta State office, Mrs Anwuli Efejuku, lauded Globacom for the transparent nature of the ongoing promo. “We witnessed the raffle draw few days ago here in Warri where it was conducted in the presence of everyone and today the winners that emerged have been presented their prizes”, she observed.
