The excited winner when he received the first call that he won a Prado in Glo Festival of Joy promo, he thought it was a scam and immediately told the caller not to call him again.” However, after a few minutes, I started receiving calls from friends and I decided to call my friends in Glo and they confirmed it. I was in disbelief; I thought it was a scam. I jokingly asked for the car immediately and I was told to come to the Glo office for verification and today the jeep has just been presented to me. Globacom is truly Nigerian, a network that delights its subscribers every year. They are still the best”.
