United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc. has again rewarded 20 customers who emerged winners in the third quarterly draw of the UBA Wise Savers Promo.
With each winning N1.5 million each, the draw brings the total amount won so far by 60 customers to N90 million.
The relevant regulatory bodies including the National Lottery Regulatory Commission, Lagos State Lottery Board and Consumer Protection Council witnessed the electronic raffle draw, which was held at the UBA Head Office in Lagos on Wednesday, July 31.
Lucky customers who emerged winners in the latest draw cut across all regions of the country.
The ongoing promo, which commenced in September last year, is expected to run till September 30, 2019, and will see a final 20 customers from across Nigeria become millionaires, winning N30 million in the last quarter of this year.
At the end of the fourth promo, 80 customers would have won a total of N120 million.
Speaking during the event, UBA’s Group Head, Consumer & Retail Banking, Jude Anele, said that since the promo began late last year, the bank has been impressed at the level of response by its customers and the general public across the country, adding that the purpose of the campaign is to reward loyal customers while encouraging the savings culture.
Mr Anele noted that there has been a remarkable increase in the number of participants in this edition compared to the previous one, adding that the bank’s objective of helping customers’ save for the rainy day is being achieved.
He said: “It is very easy to spend money but to save is a habit all must imbibe. Our key objective is to encourage our customers to save regularly. We are here to support our customers and to encourage them to save as well.”
Anele urged other customers to take advantage of the subsequent opportunities the last quarterly draw will offer.
Group Head, Transaction and Electronic Banking, Sampson Aneke, who also spoke at the event said, “There is no better time to give back and delight customers than this challenging economic period where people need all the support they can get to make life more meaningful. With this in mind, we decided to prioritise our customers as we always do at UBA by giving them plenty to cheer about and that is the reason why another 20 customers have been made millionaires today.
Mr Aneke noted that the promo is consistent with the bank’s novel initiatives in prioritizing customers, and said it was necessitated by the invaluable belief the Bank has in its customers.
“We will continue to listen and give them nothing short of the best that they deserve. UBA will not relent, because we are impressed with the impact this has made so far and will continue to touch the lives of our loyal customers positively,” he explained.
