Airtel Mobile Commerce Uganda Limited, has so far awarded shs100 million to Ugandans in the first phase of the ongoing nationwide Airtel Vroomula Amajja campaign, aimed at promoting cashless transactions and enhancing digital financial services.
Last week, 18 lucky Ugandans walked away with new motorbikes each while others won other prizes including; Airtel Money.
Among the motorbike winners were Julius Ogeimungu from Zombo District, Omara Godfrey from Abim District, Wanyana Betina, a resident of Nsambya in Kampala District, and Obbo Godfrey, a resident of Kifumba in Kampala District.
“We are excited to reward our first batch of customers and agents who have been making endless transactions with Airtel Money since we launched our Vroomula Amajja campaign, and
they have won e-cash prizes as well as motorbikes, "said Japhet Aritho, Managing
Director of Airtel Uganda Mobile Commerce Uganda Limited,
“At Airtel, we take pride in giving Ugandans a reason to imagine. Through this campaign, we aim to change lives, fuel dreams, power ambitions, and drive the nation towards a cashless future where every transaction opens a world of possibilities."
Ogeimungu, one of the winners, shared his disbelief upon receiving the news.
"I was at my construction site when I got a call informing me that I had won a motorbike in the
Vroomula Amajja promotion, but I couldn’t believe it until a second person confirmed it.
After cross-checking the number, I realized it was true. At that moment, I felt my life had
changed completely," he said.
Similarly, Wanyana recounted her experience, initially thinking the call was a scam.
"When I received the call, I thought it was one of those usual conmen trying to scam me, so I told my sister, who advised me to ignore it and go to work. However, the thought kept bothering me, so on my way to work, I stopped by an Airtel shop to consult. They confirmed that the campaign was indeed real, and I jumped with excitement, knowing it was true that I had won a boda-boda."
