A Port Harcourt lawyer has told the story of his miraculous transformation from being a tenant in a boys’ quarter to becoming a landlord in a day. He is a tale of pleasant surprise as he was struggling to put cash together to pay his rent when he received a call from Glo informing him he had just won a three-bedroom bungalow in Glo Festival of Joy Promo.
The Ikwerre, Rivers State-born legal practitioner, Chimeka Woke, whose name means “God, Thank You”, received a call from Glo officials informing him that his phone number had just been picked in an
electronic draw as winner of a 3-bedroom house.
Woke was full of gratitude to God and Glo for making him a landlord who can move his wife and 11-month-old baby into his own house at the young age of 26. He was presented the keys to the house at a ceremony on Friday, December 9, 2022.
He explained that he had just dropped off his recuperating father in the hospital for a physiotherapy session when his phone rang only to be told that he had won a 3-bedroom house.
Said Woke; “I literally abandoned my
dad and ran to the Glo office on Aba Road just to be sure I heard well. It was as if God and Globacom were monitoring me as I struggled to raise money for my apartment”.
