…and he won!
For 48-year-old Afolabi Job, Globacom must have been sent to answer the
prayer of his teenage son who on Monday December 19 prayed that God
would surprise his father with another car, his old car having packed
- That prayer came true as he won a brand new car in the ongoing Glo
Festival of Joy promo.
Two hours after his son’s prayer, Job got a call from Glo officials
informing him that his number had been drawn as winner of a brand new
car in the promo. Afolabi, an employee of Zartech Farms in Oluyole
Estate, Ibadan, explained at the presentation of prizes to him and other
winners in Ibadan on Tuesday, December 20, that he once drove a
functional car but had to park it when he could no longer maintain it.
Said he: “I used to drive my kids to school in my car. Life then became
difficult when the car packed up. I was discussing with my child this
morning when he prayed that God would give me another car next year. God
did not wait till next year before answering his prayer because I
received the call from Glo barely two hours later”, he said. Job kept
asking Glo staff if his prize was real. “Are you sure this is real? Am I
still going to ride a car in my life? Are you saying God has remembered
me”, he asked rhetorically.
Similarly, one of the winners of rechargeable fans, 52-year-old Banke
Arokoyu, commended Globacom for staying true to the promises made at the
launch of the promo. Also, one of the winners of Power Generators,
Damilare Emmanuel, thanked the company for the prize just as one of
the sewing machine winners, Tobi Olanipekun, a tailor, was almost moved
to tears as he said the machine was “an answer to one of my most fervent
heart’s desires”.
Globacom’s Sales Coordinator in the West Region, Mr. Akeem Yusuf, urged
other Glo users to be part of the life-changing promo, saying, “To
participate in this promo, voice and data customers just have to dial
the dedicated short code *611# and recharge with N500 weekly to stand a
chance to win the rechargeable fan, N2,500 monthly recharge for the
Sewing Machine, N5,000 monthly recharge for the generator, and N10,000
monthly recharge for the car and N20, 000 for the house”.
The Maye of Ibadanland, High Chief Lekan Alabi, who was Special Guest at
the event congratulated Globacom on keeping its word and making its
subscribers happy. He prayed for the company to record more successes as
it regales its customers with life-changing promotions.
