Abdullahi Haruna Babba from Kano and Umezinwa Philip Nonso from Lagos at the weekend respectively won N1 million (One Million Naira) each in the on-going New Sterling plus Cash Reward Scheme.
This brought to three the number of customers who have become millionaires through the Scheme. Ereku Luck Torise and Tarinabo Allagoa also won N500, 000 each at the draw attended by representatives from National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC), Consumer Protection Council (CPC) and the Lagos State Lotteries Board (LSLB).
The customers were selected via an electronic raffle draw held at the corporate head office of the Bank in Lagos.
The New Sterling plus Cash Reward Scheme was introduced by Sterling Bank Plc in 2015 in fulfillment of the Bank’s promise to reward customer loyalty, encourage saving culture among Nigerians and promote financial inclusion.
In a chat with reporters in Lagos, Umenzinwa Nonso commended the Bank for fulfilling its promise of rewarding customer loyalty adding that “this will remain memorable to me as long as I am alive as this will be a great support to my business”.
He speaks further: “One can only imagine what is happening to me as this is a big surprise; in fact it can only be God. I found it very difficult to believe the news when l got a call from Sterling Bank that l won a Million Naira. In fact, l couldn’t rejoice, I was just calm. I was still in doubt until this was reconfirmed to me when l got to my branch. All the same, I thank Sterling Bank for this gesture and assure that l will remain a good ambassador of the brand”.
To be part of the reward scheme, customers are required to maintain a minimum balance of N5, 000 and to qualify for an electronic raffle (e-raffle) draw ticket while every additional N5, 000 deposit increases the number of e-raffle draw tickets.
