Glo unveils text 4 millions season 2 promo

Second National Operator Globacom has announced the commencement of part two of its popular Text4 millions customer reward promotion. In this edition, about 200 subscribers would emerge millionaires in 100 days, even as other prizes like 3 Toyota Venza SUVs, 100 laptops, 100 motorbikes, free airtime would also be won by lucky Glomobile subscribers.

Speaking during the media launch at the Mike Adenuga Towers headquarters of the company in Lagos , Globacom’s Group COO, Mohamed Jameel said the promo was introduced because of the positive impact the first edition had on the lives of the network’s subscribers.

“As you may recall, the first edition of the Glo “text4millions promo” which we launched last year, was warmly embraced by our subscribers. The promotion created over 133 millionaires from Glo subscribers nationwide, while thousands of other subscribers won valuable consolation prizes and airtime worth millions of Naira.

It is on record that Mallam Ibrahim Abukar, a 36-year old electrician based in Abuja , FCT went home with the grand prize of N30million”, he said.

Jameel explained that while the first season saw the creation of one Glo millionaire daily for the duration of the promo, the stakes have been raised higher as Season 2 of the Glo “text4millions” promo will create two millionaires daily. This means that two winners of N1million each will emerge daily for the 100-days duration of the promo.

According to Jameel, the promo would gulp in excess of N300 million and the company does not regret spending such huge amount to reward its customers because they were the reason behind the company’s solid footing not only in the Nigerian telecom market but indeed the whole of Africa.

Jameel added that in the package, one subscriber will smile home with the monthly jackpot of N10million cash for 3 months while the winner of the grand prize will go home with the whopping, life-changing sum of N30million.

Other exciting prizes to be won by Glo subscribers in the promo include one brand new 3.5 litres Toyota Venza for 3 months, one HP Laptop computer daily for 100 days and one motorbike daily for 100 days. 1000 Glo subscribers will also win a N500 recharge card every week

Jameel said the promo was coming at the right time as it holds the promise of an exciting Xmas and New Year season of unprecedented rewards for current and new subscribers on the Glo network.

“With a total cash payout of over N200m and an additional prize value running into hundreds of millions of naira, this promotion will make an enormous contribution to the lives of the lucky winners, positively touch their families and give our subscribers a special reason to rejoice as we turn the corner into the New Year, 2011”, he stated.

In order to participate, subscribers are simply required to send “WIN” to the short code 555, thereby standing a chance of winning any of the fantastic prizes being offered in the promotion.
