She commended the management of Dangote Cement for the transparent manner it was conducting the promotion, saying “we have followed through since the commencement of the promo, we monitored to see that everything is done according to rules and Dangote Cement has passed all tests.
A Port Harcourt based block moulder, Noah Adefusi, who won the grand prize of five million naira(N5m) in the Dangote Cement Bag of Goodies Promo Season 3, could not contain his joy as he was called to speak on the promo.
Noah who is also a retailer of cement beamed with smiles as he received the alert of the prize money paid into his account. He said that he was initially skeptical of the promo and discarded it as a ruse until he started picking and keeping winning cards and completed the spelling of Dangote with one of the cards having an eagle. On presenting the cards at the redemption center, they were verified, and he was told to wait for the presentation event.
The reality of the promo win, then, dawned on him as he saw the dummy cheque with his name written on it at the presentation ceremony held at the Port Harcourt Depot 2 of Dangote Cement.
