Essien-Garricks, a 27-year-old student of College of Health Science and
Technology, Rivers State, has emerged the winner of a Cessna 182T aircraft in
the much talked about ‘MTN Ultimate Wonder’ promo.
She
emerged winner in an elaborate and transparent draw held at the Golden Plaza,
Ikoyi, head office of MTN in the full glare of newsmen, Nigerian Lottery
Regulatory Commission (NLRC) and the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC).
Larry
Annetts, chief marketing officer, MTN, told newsmen in Lagos that the journey
so far finding the winner of the aeroplane, as promised by MTN, has been interesting,
credible and transparent.
“When
we came out with the promo, many doubted us but today we have an ultimate
winner who will go home with the promised Cessna 182T aeroplane. The take-home
for us here is that MTN is committed towards enriching the lives of its
consumers.
“When
we say we will do something, you can be sure that we don’t renege on our
promises. The can-do- spirit is forever guiding our paths in offering utmost
satisfaction to our consumers and we are glad that today a Nigerian has been enriched
and empowered with an aeroplane,” he stated. Ebube, who was notified of her
good fortune via a phone call immediately opted for the cash value of the
aeroplane, which is N64 million.
Overwhelmed
and full of emotions, she showered praises on MTN, describing the ultimate
prize as a true wonder coming just in time for Christmas.
“I
am short of words, there is no word to describe what I feel right now, it is
almost as if it is a dream but I know that nothing can be more real than what I
am feeling right now. This must be the best Christmas gift ever. It is truly
wonderful,” she said.
Speaking
on the process so far in the selection of winners for the promo, the assistant
director, Lagos zone of the NLRC, Obi Iriegbu, stated that it has been
transparent and credible.
“We
started this journey together, ensuring that the telecoms consumers’ interests
are protected and that the brand fulfills its promises.”
