receiving the news.
"I was going on about my business collecting scrap when I got a call informing me that I had won a motorbike in the Vroomula Amajja promotion, but I couldn’t believe that it was real until I saw the bike with my own eyes. This is a life-changing moment for me and I am going to add to my business, empower myself and become a millionaire all because of Airtel Money," Kagoda said.

“I deposited money on my Airtel Money account and I won a motorbike. I was very happy and indeed the bike is here. My husband is going to use it to make some money to cater for the family. I am extremely happy to finally see it and receive the keys," she said.
