The lawmaker who was Special Guest at the presentation of a
three-bedroom house to Ridwan Ajamu Bello, a 28-year-old Mathematics
graduate of Ekiti State University, in Abuja on Friday noted, “There are
so many companies in Nigeria, but Glo has shown it is second to none in
CSR. What I feel inside of me is beyond what I can express”

On his part, veteran television producer, Mr. Igho, said “Glo has stood
up as a true Nigerian champion”, adding, “I commend the company for
putting a roof over the heads of so many Nigerians.”

Meanwhile, the winner had a hard time believing his luck as he kept Glo
officials,  Adekanye Sunday and Iheanachor Chikodi of the National
Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC) as well as Ibrahim Mahmud of the
Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) waiting for up to three hours
before showing up at the Gloworld outlet at Wuse Zone 2, Abuja.

It took the representatives of the regulatory agencies hours before
Bello was finally convinced that he had indeed emerged a house owner in
the prestigious Galadimawa Estate in Abuja.

Many eminent walk-in customers of Glo, among who was the Chairman of
ThisDay Editorial Board, Mr. Segun Adeniyi, who were at the shop to
transact business, waited to catch a glimpse of the lucky but doubtful
winner who eventually arrived the Gloworld shop three hours after he had
been called by Glo officials.

“Please forgive me. At first it was difficult to believe. You know how
these days we have a lot of people claiming to be what they are not, all
kinds of scam calls. But when I started getting calls from different
people from Glo and then the NCC and NLRC people also speaking and
asking me to come to Glo office, I now thought that this could actually
be my lucky day. I thank Glo for this opportunity, it’s beyond what I
can express,” he prostrated and pleaded.

The lucky winner who was the second to emerge in Abuja received keys to
his impressive prize in the presence of his family and friends who were
equally elated when they beheld the three-bedroom house complete with a
two-bedroom boys’ quarters courtesy of Globacom.

Other winners who won had earlier received their prizes in major
Nigerian cities including Ibadan, Lagos, Ijebu Ode, Benin, Enugu, Port
Harcourt, Warri and Jos.
