Miriam and members of her family were beaming with joy as they turned up to receive the keys to the apartment from Glo at the presentation ceremony in Port Harcourt on Friday.
Twenty-Four hours after the draw that brought up her name, Okeanya still felt it was too good to be true. “It is a lie”, she shouted continually upon being informed a day before the presentation ceremony that she had won a house.
She confessed that nothing gave her any inkling at any time from January till December that she was going to become a landlady at the end of theyear. “It feels great and shocking at the same time. I am grateful to Glo. This Festival of Joy, I think, was put in place for me”, she added.
“True, I saw the advert on TV and decided to opt in by dialing the *611# code, but I never had any idea that fate and Glo were working together to do something as great as this for me”, she said.
The Executive Chairman of Obio-Akpor Local Government, Barrister George Ariolu, who presented the house keys to Okeanya, commended Globacom for putting in place such a huge subscriber appreciation package, adding that lives are being changed and fortunes transformed by Glo.
“I must congratulate and applaud Globacom for this and I wish other networks can copy this”, he said.
