A trader from Adamawa State, Salihu Usman Wavah, has won an all-expense paid trip to watch the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, after he emerged the first winner of Coca-Cola’s ongoing Believe and Win Under-the-Crown campaign.
The lucky winner, overwhelmed with emotions, during his official unveiling at the Coca-Cola Nigeria Office in Lagos, described his winning as an opportunity of a lifetime.
He disclosed that, his initial thought when he was notified was the incredulity of the entire situation as it seemed unbelievable.
He said: “I want to thank God for this opportunity, I feel elated and proud. I appreciate Coca-Cola for this great privilege”.
“When I first received the call, I was pleasantly surprised but skeptical however I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt when the calls kept coming in from Coca-Cola. I was asked to provide my international passport which I did.
“You can imagine how elated I was when they sent my flight ticket to Lagos in response to my sending the data page of my international passport to them. It’s been such a dream come true for me.”
Present at the draws were key representatives from the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC) and the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC), who congratulated the winner and the brains behind the consumer-reward initiative, Coca-Cola, on the company’s willingness to give back to customers through football.
Recall that the Coca-Cola Believe and Win, Under-The-Crown Promo was unveiled on the 5th of August, with a promise of winnings to customers estimated at over N400million, of which five lucky winners would be winning an all-expense paid trip to watch the 2022 FIFA World Cup live in Qatar.
