No fewer than 60 people have emerged winners of Dangote Cement promo in the Northeast region of the country and Ogun State.

According to a statement from the company, two people won N5 million each, five people won N1.million each, while hundreds of other customers won different prizes, including television sets, refrigerat­ors, rechargeab­le fans, and 2KVA generators, among many others in Ogun State.

The Regional Director, North-east DCP, Ismail Iliya, said the winners were from Bauchi, Adamawa, Taraba, Plateau, Borno, Gombe, and Yobe states

According to him, 20 winners were awarded cash prizes and consolatio­n gifts at the venue while those in far-flung areas will be sent theirs after the event.

The Star prize winner, Salisu, said he was elated about his win and commended Dangote Cement for the initiative.

Other winners said they initially thought it was not real but realised that “with Dangote, only the best can happen”.

“We were doubtful initially but with the conviction that Dangote means well for the nation we decided to give the promo a try,” they said.

It would be recalled that the Principal Administra­tive Officer of the National Lottery Regulation Commission, Afam Ojeh, on Wednesday, in Sagamu, Ogun State, lauded the initiative of the management of Dangote Cement for consistent­ly giving back to its teeming customers through its annual promo, where customers are winning huge sums of money and other lofty items.

Ojeh, who represente­d the National Lottery Regulatory Commission, enjoined the customers to appreciate the gesture of Dangote, saying the company, on a yearly basis, gives back to its customers and appreciate­s their patronage through the promo.

The representa­tive of the National Lottery Regulation Commission, Mandy Appiah, said Dangote is a Quality Brand with great concern for consumers to ensure a good quality of life for the people.
