In response to customers demand for an extension of the promo, we announced last week our decision to extend Wo Mmere Nie till June to allow more customers to participate and win.”
He continued “We have also introduced a daily cash prize of GHC1, 000 each for two customers who accumulate the highest points at the end of each day. Indeed there is no better time to join Ghana’s biggest recharge promo than now. And you can partake simply by recharging GHC 2 and above or playing the SMS trivia by sending Start to 477. To all our customers, I say, this is your time. Wo Mmere Nie “
The winners
Joel Ameah is a digital marketer and has been using Airtel for more than 2 years. He could not hide his joy as he commended Airtel for enriching his life and that of other Airtel customers. He said “I am really excited to be one of the numerous winners in this promo. Initially I was not sure I could win as much as GHC 10,000 just by recharging and playing the SMS trivia” but here I am today. I will invest the money in a bank for now and plan on what to do next with it”.
Daniel Kumafo, a credit officer who won GHC 35,000 as the winner for week 13 and month 3 said “When I received the call from Airtel saying I was a weekly winner I was very happy, but coming here and being called out again as the monthly winner did not come as a surprise, because in addition to recharging, I played the SMS trivia. I am super excited to have won an additional GHC 25,000. My eyes are set on the ultimate cash prize of GHC 150,000 so I will continue recharging and playing the SMS trivia”.
