lucky customers of United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc were eagerly waiting for
their flight.
The 20 lucky customers had emerged as winners in the Remittance Awoof Promotion organized by UBA to reward customers that had received remittances through MoneyGram and Western Union from any UBA business office across the country. Another 60 set of customers were rewarded with beautiful gift items.
The winners were selected based on money transfers through MoneyGram and Western Union at the bank within the period of January and August 2015.
The trip is part of the bank’s efforts to reward loyalty, give back to the society and impact the lives of individuals that carry out business with the bank.
Their destination was Dubai.
Courtesy of UBA, they were going on an all expense paid 3-day trip to the
world’s holiday city. For many, it was their first time of traveling out of the
country and they were excitedly looking
forward to it.
