When contacted on the phone, one of the 20 lucky winners, Nnadumije, Ebube, excitedly expressed gratitude to the bank and said he was happy to be a customer of the bank. He thanked the bank, and said the move was thoughtful and would help to enrich customers, especially during these trying economic times.
The Group Executive, Digital and Consumer Banking, Mr. Anant Rao, who addressed participants at the event, said the promo was launched as part of the bank’s initiatives towards prioritising customers.
He added that customers who saved consistently would be rewarded in order to promote the financial inclusion initiatives of the bank.
“We believe it is time we rewarded our customers who have been very loyal over the years. Without them, we would not have made the giant strides attained thus far.” – Punch
