The MTN-sponsored weekly TV game show, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire (WWTBAM), took a new dimension at the weekend, as sponsors, MTN, rode on the platform to give out a house worth N50 million to a winner, Omotola Akinsola.
Omotola, a member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), won the prize as part of MTN’s packages for Nigerians in its “Season of Surprise Campaign”.
Special episodes of the TV game show, tagged: “Who Deserves To Be Surprised”, were aired on TV stations on December 21 and 28, to the amazement of viewers.
MTN, in conjunction with Ultima Ltd, told people to nominate whoever they felt deserved to be surprised during the Yuletide.
Such a person, they said, must have influenced or touched their lives in a positive manner.
The organisers said many nominations were received in this regard and it took a painstaking process to select the eight nominees with the most compelling stories, to have a chance of making it to the hot seat, not only to play for the regular star prize of N10million, but to also have a chance of winning a house worth N50millon, courtesy of MTN.
