On Thursday, January 27, 2022, some Fidelity Bank customers had the opportunity to win millions of Naira in the month’s draw of the lender’s Get Alert in Millions savings promo, season 5 (GAIM 5).
It was gathered that no fewer than 10 customers of the financial institution became N1 million richer. They were from several branches across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria and presented with their prizes at an event held at Fidelity Bank, Awolowo Road, Ikoyi, Lagos.
One of the winners, Stanley Okpoto, who could not hide his joy, said, “I am more than happy to receive this cash prize from Fidelity Bank.
“Being a long-time customer and follower of the bank, I feel special and grateful that as little as 2K earned me so much money. I am looking forward to how this money will further transform my business. I encourage my friends and family to take advantage of this life-changing opportunity.”
Also speaking at the well-attended event, the promo Chairman and Executive Director in charge of the bank’s Lagos and South-West Directorate, Dr Ken Opara, said the ceremony marked a special celebration for the bank being the first prize presentation for the year and therefore sets the tone for the remaining prize presentations to be held in the year.
“It gives me great pleasure to announce the presentation of the sum of N1 million to Ajoma Rachael Iyowo and Stanley Sunday Okpoto who emerged winners in the second GAIM 5 monthly draw which held last week.
“Asides Stanley and Ajoma, eight other customers of Fidelity Bank will receive cash prizes at similar events holding simultaneously at some of our branches across Nigeria. These customers only had to maintain a minimum of N2,000 in their Fidelity Bank accounts to emerge winners. That is the beauty of the GAIM 5 savings promo.
“As a bank, we remain committed to empowering our customers with the resources, expertise and solutions they need to meet their strategic business goals. Whether it is the right loan product, appropriate payment channel or in this case, the benefits for saving their money with us, we are all about providing platforms and solutions to help our customers grow,” explained Dr Opara, who was represented by the bank’s Chief Digital Officer, Lanre Showunmi, stated.
The GAIM campaign is an 8-month long scheme that was launched in November 2021. So far, Fidelity Bank has enriched the lives of over 520 customers with cash prizes ranging from N10,000 to N1 million in weekly consolation draws and monthly draws respectively.
Qualifying requirements for the scheme are maintaining an account balance of at least N2,000 in a Fidelity Bank savings account and activating a debit card. According to the bank, the promo employs a ticketing approach whereby each N2,000 in customers’ accounts represents a ticket in the draws.
In operation since 1988, Fidelity Bank is a full-fledged commercial bank with a growing customer base of over 6 million customers across Nigeria. The bank is known for exceptional customer service and digital innovation.
