For 30-year-old Chukwuemeka Chikezie, life is on a happy rebound as the limb-impaired construction technician became the owner of a brand new car, courtesy of Glo Festival of Joy promo.

In spite of this double jeopardy, he however resolved never to become a burden to the society making him to dust up his determination to succeed in life.
He was one of the scores of winners who emerged in the Onitsha edition of Globacom’s customer reward promo. While he won a brand new Kia Car, others went home with Power Generating sets, Sewing Machines and Rechargeable Fans.
Chukwuemeka found it hard to believe that his life had been transformed until keys to the car were handed to him at a ceremony which held at the Gloworld shop at the Conoil station along Onitsha Bridgehead on Wednesday.
