Glo Showers Huge Cash Prizes on Winners of Jolly Product Cash Award

Several lucky Nigerians on Monday received huge cash prizes in Globacom’s Jolly Product Cash Award presentation ceremonies held simultaneously in different cities across the country. The events featured winners from different categories, Jolly Life lottery, Jolly Wheel, Jolly Win, and Jolly Trivia.
The star prize of ₦1 million went to Sunday Efenure, a 69-year-old technician from Edo State who won through the Jolly Wheel promo. Efenure who received his cheque in Lagos confessed that he almost ignored the news of his win, fearing it was a scam. “With the rate of scams in the country, I didn’t believe it at first. My wife encouraged me, and I even sent my son to verify before I decided to attend. I thank Glo for this life-changing gift,” he said.
Also smiling home with ₦500,000 each were Taiwo Oni, a 39-year-old Ibadan resident who won in the Jolly Life promo in Ibadan, Oyo State, and Esther Clifford in Abuja who was rewarded under Jolly Win. Taiwo’s twin brother, Kehinde, captured the mood when he exclaimed in Yoruba, “E chop am o!” in celebration of his brother’s fortune which also prompted him to purchase a Glo sim for himself to play the Jolly games with the aim of winning as well.
In Warri, Delta State, Christopher Onajobhe received ₦200,000 won in the Jolly Win category, while Denem Usman Maji from Nasarawa, Godwin Udanna from Onitsha, Anambra State, and Ijeoma Anogwa from Enugu each won cash prizes ranging from ₦100,000 to ₦200,000 in the Jolly Wheel category.
Addressing the winners in Lagos, Mr. Mojeed Aluko of Globacom’s Value Added Services (VAS) Department congratulated them and urged other subscribers to continue participating in the Jolly promos Nigerians to participate in the Jolly promos by dialling *13199# on their Glo lines and following the menu prompt to join the list of winners, describing them as avenues to combine entertainment with empowerment.

Glo, Osun Govt Launch ‘Imole Connect’ for 20,000 Civil Servants

Globacom has entered into a strategic partnership with the Osun State Government to roll out 20,000 closed user group (CUG) lines for civil servants, teachers, local government staff and political appointees across the state.
The initiative, branded Imole Connect, is designed to foster seamless communication and collaboration among government workers, thereby improving efficiency and productivity.
Speaking at the official launch in Osogbo on Wednesday, Governor Ademola Adeleke commended Globacom for supporting the state’s digital drive. He described the project as a crucial step towards bridging communication gaps in the public sector.
“With the launch of 20,000 Glo Imole Connect lines today, we are taking a bold step towards improving our public servants’ linkage across the State. These lines, operating under a closed user group (CUG) arrangement, come with significantly reduced call and data rates,” Governor Adeleke noted.
He further explained that, “one of the challenges in public governance has always been the difficulty of seamless communication. Information does not always move quickly or efficiently and this has often led to avoidable delays and disconnections between agencies and officers across different levels. With this new arrangement, I am confident that we will begin to close those gaps and work in closer alignment.”
On his part, Globacom’s National Head, Enterprise Business Group, Mr. Adeniyi Odejobi, assured that the company was committed to enhancing service delivery in Osun State through efficient communication.
“Globacom has transformed from being just a telecommunications company to being a digital solutions provider where we offer enterprise solutions to large organisations, government and public sector organisations to enhance digital economy and enhance the operations of smart cities in some sub nationals,” he explained.
