Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, has lauded the chairman of Globacom, Dr. Mike Adenuga Jr., for his magnanimity to Glo subscribers.
The foremost traditional ruler gave the commendation said at the presentation of a brand new car to Anas Yusuf Adamu who is winner of the Glo Festival of Joy promo on Tuesday, January 24, 2023.
The Emir, represented by the Dan Amar of Kano, Alhaji Aliu Harazimi, commended Globacom and its chairman for the countless empowerment initiatives that the company had executed since inception in 2004.
He said: “It is worthy of note that Globacom has not forgotten to reward its loyal customers in Kano and across Nigeria.
“This culture of empowerment is commendable and sets a good example for corporate Nigeria.”
In the same vein, Kano State Commissioner for Finance, Alhaji Adamu Fanda, also commended the determination of the company to better the lot of its customers.
He noted that this has culminated in giving out so many valuable prizes to the customers across the country every year.
“Globacom is setting a good example of what corporate citizenship should be.
“The company is indeed demonstrating its commitment to its operating environment”, Fanda said, and urged the mobile network operator to “keep up the good works.”
Representatives of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Alhaji Ibrahim Mahmud, and the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC), Engineer Hanza Goya, also took turns to commend Globacom.
They commended the company for its openness and compliance with the guidelines of the regulatory agencies in the conduct of the customer reward promo.
Adamu, the winner, was full of appreciation to Globacom as he recalled his initial shock when the company officials called to inform him that he had won a brand new Kia car in the Festival of Joy promotion.
“I first got a call in the evening from Glo office that I had won a car. I almost did not believe because my phone was switched off all day.
“When they however told me to come to the Gloworld Office on Murtala Mohammed Way in Kano, it dawned on me it is real.
“I have never owned a car and this gift from Globacom is great empowerment for me and my family,” the excited winner said.
The event was attended by scores of subscribers and their well-wishers, following the emergence of over 60 winners from the draw held the day preceding the event.
The lucky winners went home with power generators, sewing machines and rechargeable fans.
