Olieh Somtochukwu, who works with a real estate company in Anambra State, has emerged the first winner of N1 million in the Glo Jolly Win promo.
The promo offers subscribers the chance to win cash prizes and airtime by answering trivia questions or spinning a wheel. It is organized in partnership with NCC-licensed companies, Nitroswitch, an aggregator, and Tetragrammaton, a value-added service provider.
Somtochukwu, who played with just N100 in August, emerged after a promo draw held in line with the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC) procedure. He was presented with his prize at a ceremony in Lagos.
The winner, who travelled to Lagos from Onitsha, Anambra State, to receive his prize, paid glowing tribute to Globacom, especially after receiving the credit alert of N1 million on his phone before the event ended.
Somtochukwu explained that the money came in at a time that he needed help to take care of his health challenges. “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,” he disclosed.
Mojeed Aluko of Globacom’s VAS Department explained that “the Glo Jolly Win is a lottery service in which subscribers can answer trivia questions or spin a wheel to win loads of airtime and cash prizes for as low as N100 daily, with no need for downloads or any storage usage on phones. Subscribers can select their preferred services from the options of Jolly Trivia, Wheel, Win & Life to join in the fun and excitement of the lottery with the potential to become millionaires like Somtochukwu”.
Speaking at the event, Chidi Nnadozie, CEO of Nitroswitch, praised the partnership with Globacom, saying, “We’re proud to bring excitement and rewards to Glo subscribers through the lottery.” The company is licensed by NCC as a VAS aggregator to integrate and deliver third party content services such as video, animation, gaming, infotainment and lottery services from licensed Content Providers to mobile network operators in Nigeria.
Tetragrammaton, the owner of the Jolly Suite lottery services, offers various value-added services, including lottery, entertainment, video, and gaming services, to mobile subscribers through the VAS aggregator.
Subscribers can join the lottery by dialing *20152# or, alternatively, send JWD, JWW, or JWM to 20152 as applicable.
