The Ime Obi, palace of Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe, on the second day of the Ofala celebration called Azu Ofala was the venue of the impressive presentation ceremony.
Chuka Augustine Amene and Kelvin Tochukwu who both won tricycles, popularly called Keke, were full of gratitude to Globacom for empowering them through the promo.

Thanks to Globacom for this special gift”.
On his own part, the second tricycle winner, Tochukwu, explained that it was a dream come true for him as he had been praying for a Keke.

I told my family and friends that I would win and here I am today. I am a firm believer that one will achieve whatever one wants to achieve and works for it.”
