By Dipo Olowookere

Reality TV star, Mr Tobi Bakre, has been appointed as the brand ambassador for a lottery platform in Nigeria, Landlotto.

He was chosen to use his influence to promote the brand and make it very popular among Nigerians, who are exposed to many lotto brands.

Tobi Bakre shot into prominence when he featured in season 3 of the Big Brother Nigeria show and made it to the final. He later delved into acting and also became an influencer.

Over the years, he has garnered a huge following on social media. This is one of the things that attracted the management of Landlotto and both parties agreed to work together.

The firm said the new partnership consolidates its position as a trusted platform offering Nigerians a genuine shot at financial stability, as well as the chance to own landed properties and apartments in Lagos at a cost as low as N200, though this is only opened to persons who are 18 years or older.

Landlotto, which is licensed by the Lagos State Lottery Board, allows participants to win these various prizes on a daily, weekly, monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly basis.

The company said the lotto players can get N10,000 from the daily draws with just N200; N50,000 weekly with just N500 in the super Saturday draw; N500,000 monthly with N1,000 in the monthly jackpot; a grand prize of a piece of land with N2,000 every two months in the Land Mega Win draw; and an apartment in Lagos with just N3,000 in the Landlotto Boomer draw.
