Another winning season has started on the Glo network as a millionaire just emerged in its Glo Jolly Win promo.
The promo is organized in conjunction with NCC-licensed Nitroswitch, an aggregator company, and Tetragrammaton, the value-added service provider to subscribers on Glo network.
In the first round of winnings celebrated on Wednesday in Lagos, a member of staff of a real estate company in Anambra, Olieh Somtochukwu, became the first subscriber to win a million Naira in the promo.
Somtochukwu, who disclosed that he played with N100 only, became an instant millionaire in the promo draw held in line with the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC) procedure.
The excited winner, who received the alert for his N1million prize on his phone during the brief presentation, said he had to travel from Onitsha, Anambra State to receive his prize. He told the gathering that, after playing the lottery game, he forgot about it but was shocked when he received a call informing him of his good fortune. He said he refused to be swayed by the information until he arrived Globacom’s office and saw himself as the centre of attraction.
Said he, “I was very much surprised. Even up to now, I’m still shocked. I am short of words to express how I feel today. I thought it was a scam when I was called, I thought it was one of those random calls you get, but on coming here, I can say I am happy with what has happened here. I’ve received the alert for the N1 million”, Somtochukwu declared, adding that the money came in at a time that he needed assistance to take care of his health.
