Twenty five lucky subscribers of Glo Mobile Ghana who won in the ‘Let's Go To Brazil’ Promotion have been unveiled.
The telecoms company on Wednesday presented the final batch of winners in the promo to the press at a colourful ceremony held at its Gloworld experiential shop at Ringroad Central in Accra.
The company announced that all the promo winners scheduled to travel to Brazil would depart on Thursday, June 19, 2014.
Glo gave cash packages of GHc 5,000 to winners who could not make the trip to Brazil due to technical challenges such as unavailability of passports and inability to get a valid visa.
One of the winners, in a philanthropic gesture, donated his prize to the Demonstration School for the Deaf, Mampong Akropong.
Glo Mobile said nine of the 25 lucky subscribers had successfully completed their travel documentations and were set for the once-in-a-lifetime trip to the land of football.
They will have the golden opportunity of watching Ghana play in its critical match against Germany.
The 20 fresh winners announced on Wednesday joined five others who had earlier been unveiled on Wednesday, May 14, 2014. The 25 winners are made up of 22 Glo Mobile subscribers and three of the company's business partners.
The Head of Business of Glo Mobile Ghana, Mr Akeem Kazeem, said at the event that Glo had promised in March to turn to reality the dreams of subscribers on the network who wished to watch Ghana play in Brazil.
The new set of winners include Eteren Kelvin Okotei, a Marketing student at Legon; Nii Ankra Hyde, an accountant; Ogechinyere Amogu, a final year Law student at Zenith University; Michael Agho, a student; Mr Osei Yaw Akoto Dappah a businessman in the petroleum sector; Mr Solomon Addo Nartey; Prosper Jordan; Sunny Kumi, a stationeries dealer who ported his line to Glo from another network; Hawa Mustapha a Kumasi based trader who plies the Dubai route; Benard Osei, a Physics and Computer Science graduate of Legon, who is doing his national service at the National Nuclear Research Institute; Donaldson Gyasi; Amadu Yahaya; Aisha Danjuma; Davis Omole, an oil and gas businessman; Charles Otoo, a businessman and farmer; Collins Amposah, a stationeries seller in Koforidua and Gabriella Kandolf.
