Digital Television (TV) service
provider, StarTimes, has announced names of the first five winners of an
all-expense paid trip to Germany to watch and enjoy the thrills and sporting
actions of the German Bundesliga football, and meet the super stars.
The company, at the first draw held in Abuja, at the weekend, picked the first five winners out of the 10 slots up for grabs in its ongoing 'Win A Trip to Germany' promo while the remaining five winners will emerge at the end of the promo in September.
The company also held draws which
produced 175 other winners of various household items, including 25 units of 40
inches LED television sets, 50 units of 2.5 KVA generating sets as well as 100
Solar 5 smart phones respectively. On the whole, 77,559 subscribers
qualified for the first draws.
The event was witnessed by the media
and regulatory bodies, including deputy director of regulatory and monitoring,
national lottery board commission, Mr. Sabo Haruna, representatives of
advertising practitioners council of Nigeria, APCON as well as consumer
protection council, CPC in Abuja.
In his remarks, Mr. Sabo Haruna said
“the lottery board was present at the event to ensure that everything goes as
advertised. Everything a company promises customers must be fulfilled as
announced. We are quite satisfied with the StarTimes promo draw witnessed today
as it was very transparent and properly done.”
According to StarTimes’ Public Relations Manager, Mr Israel Bolaji, the promo, which commenced last month, is part of the grand plan to mark the company’s fifth year anniversary and excite its entertainment loving subscribers.
Mr Bolaji said StarTimes signed a five-year deal to exclusively broadcast all the Bundesliga league football matches and three years exclusive deal to broadcast the Serie A football live, both in Nigeria and across Africa on its sport channels – Star World Football, Star Sport Premium, Star Sports 2 and Star Sports Focus – as part of its renewed bid to boost sports offerings.
“To qualify, a StarTimes subscriber should recharge for two months and get a guaranteed 50 per cent discount on the second month while new customers within the period can also do the same,” he noted.
Bolaji remarked that as a mark of
honour for customers, the pay TV firm decided to organize landmark
engagements and contents to further excite customers in recognition of their
support for the brand in the last five years in Nigeria. Customers can
participate both on our digital terrestrial and satellite platforms (StarTimes
and Star Dish TV).
As a family brand, StarTimes is
interested in providing as much entertainment and engagement for subscribers
and as it continues with the promo in the spirit of its 5th year anniversary,
both new and old customer can be a lucky winner.
