Globacom on Tuesday presented another car and other prizes to a new set of winners in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital. 

A 48-year-old employee of
Zartech Farms in Oluyole Estate, Ibadan, Afolabi Job, took home the
brand new car.
Job, whose curiosity was only satisfied when the keys were presented to him at the event, kept asking Glo staff if it was real. 

“Are you sure this is real? Am I still going to ride a car in my life? Are you saying God has remembered me?”

His story was very touching. According to him, he once owned a car before but lost it to the vagaries of life. “I used to drive my kids to
school in my car. Life then became difficult when the car packed up. I
was discussing with my child this morning when he prayed that God would give me another car next year. God did not wait till next year before
answering his prayer because I received the call from Glo barely two
hours later,” he said.

Other winners were full of commendation to Globacom. One of the rechargeable fan winners, 52-year-old Mrs. Banke Arokoyu, lauded
Globacom for fulfilling its promises made during the launch of the promo
by presenting the various prizes to winners. Also, a power generator
winner, Damilare Emmanuel, expressed gratitude to Globacom for the prize. 

Another winner of a sewing machine, Tobi Olanipekun, a tailor, said the sewing machine was an answer to one of his most fervent heart’s desires.

Globacom’s Sales Coordinator in the West Region, Mr. Akeem Yusuf, urged
other Glo users to be part of the life-changing promo, saying, “To
participate in this promo, voice and data customers just have to dial
the dedicated short code *611# and recharge with N500 weekly to stand a
chance to win the rechargeable fan, N2,500 monthly recharge for the
Sewing Machine, N5,000 monthly recharge for the generator, and N10,000 monthly recharge for the car and N20,000 for the house”.

The Maye of Ibadanland, High Chief Lekan Alabi, who was Special Guest at
the event congratulated Globacom for keeping its word and making its
subscribers happy. 

He prayed for the company to continue to grow from height to height as it regales its customers with life-changing prizes.

2027: Dickson not against Obidents and Kwankwasiya groups – NDC

2027: NDC fixes October 20 for Campaign Council inauguration, Presentation of Certificates of Return

By Myke Uzendu, Abuja  The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has fixed October 20, 2026, for the inauguration of its Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), presentation of Certificates of Return to its candidates for the 2027 general elections and a strategic dinner for candidates contesting various elective positions.  The party also disclosed that its presidential and vice-presidential candidates, Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, respectively, would participate in consultations to determine key appointments in the campaign council.  National Chairman of the NDC, Senator Moses Cleopas Zuwoghe, announced this on Saturday at a press conference at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.  He said the campaign council’s organisational structure and timetable had been ready since the end of August, but its inauguration was being delayed to allow Obi and Kwankwaso to conclude consultations and recommend nominees for strategic positions.  According to him, the activities scheduled for October 20 would follow a meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC), where key decisions concerning preparations for the 2027 elections are expected to be considered and ratified.  Cleopas said the delay did not indicate inactivity or internal division, explaining that the party was committed to establishing a properly constituted campaign structure capable of coordinating its nationwide electoral activities.  He added that appointments would reflect national spread, competence, capacity and the ability of nominees to contribute meaningfully to the campaign.  The NDC chairman disclosed that Obi and Kwankwaso were expected to recommend nominees for several strategic positions in the Presidential Campaign Council, including Director-General, Deputy Director-General, campaign spokesperson, Director of Social Media and Financial Controller.  The candidates are also expected to nominate two additional officers who, alongside the party’s National Treasurer, will oversee the campaign council’s separate and dedicated bank account.  Cleopas said the arrangement was intended to ensure that the presidential and vice-presidential candidates were actively involved in decisions affecting the organisation, financing and direction of their campaign.  He maintained that the party leadership, the candidates and the National Leader, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, were united in their preparations for the 2027 elections.  The chairman said the campaign council would be formally announced after the national leadership received the candidates’ nominations and recommendations.  He argued that constituting the council without the active participation of the presidential candidate and his running mate would be inappropriate, given their central roles in the presidential contest. Cleopas also dismissed reports suggesting that the party was divided or struggling to organise itself ahead of the 2027 elections.  He said the press conference was partly convened to address concerns raised by party members, supporters and Nigerians over the apparent delay in establishing the presidential campaign structure.  The chairman maintained that the National Working Committee (NWC), NEC, National Leader and party structures at the state, local government and ward levels remained committed to the party’s candidates.  He equally rejected suggestions that Dickson was working with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to undermine the NDC presidential ticket.  Questioning the basis of the allegation, Cleopas said it would have been easier for Dickson to join the APC than to undertake the more demanding process of establishing and registering a political party if his objective had been to work for the ruling party.  He urged journalists to exercise caution in reporting political allegations and speculation, warning that misinformation could create unnecessary distrust and mislead the electorate. ...
