The Coca-Cola system in Kenya awarded the seventh winner with a year’s worth of food shopping in Nairobi. Zaccheus Ngereso, a Kibera resident in Nairobi was announced as the winner in the ongoing promotion.
Speaking at the award ceremony, Zaccheus Ngereso said, “This is important to me, together with my family and those that I serve. I am a pastor by profession, and you know this involves a lot of hosting. Before I won I had played this game a couple of times and even in the previous years. I would urge my fellow Kenyans not to give up when they have not emerged a winner in the first attempt, their time is coming.”
The campaign, which runs for 12 weeks, offers consumers a chance to win over 50 million Kenya Shillings worth of prizes, including cash (mobile money), airtime, and shopping vouchers.
To participate, consumers need to buy a 1L, 1.25L or 2L bottle of Coca-Cola, Fanta, or Sprite and check under the green cap for a code. They will then need to send an SMS with the unique code found under the green cap to 40111 for a chance to win instant prizes and be entered into a draw for more prizes. The SMS to 40111 is free.
In addition to the grand prize of a year’s worth of food shopping other prizes include instant cash, airtime and shopping vouchers, enabling consumers to share meal moments with their loved ones. The promotion seeks to inspire Kenyans to continue enjoying meal moments together with a Coca-Cola.
Grand prize winners will be contacted through a dedicated customer care number to be advised on their winnings. To take part in the competition, consumers must be eighteen years and above and registered users of Safaricom, Airtel & Telkom.
