Director of Communications at Melcom Ghana, Godwin Avernorgbor during an interaction with the media during the ceremony explained that, the move does not only form part of its corporate social responsibility but also a way to show appreciation to its loyal customers.
“This promotion is to say thank you to Ghanaians for their support. It’s not easy doing business in a market place like this, where there is so much competition.
“So for Melcom to have survived and grown to this height from one year to thirty years and still growing, it’s because Ghanaians have supported and they must give back to society,” he said.
To enter the draw, customers must make a purchase of ¢100 or more from any Melcom outlet. This will entitle them to a special scratch card with a secret pin, which then will be texted to the shortcode 1788. This will enter them into the draw to win.
