“Initially I thought it was a scam because someone called me from FirstBank that I won a car and was told to come. My wife persuaded me to go and they said congratulations that I won a car. These days there are a lot of scams and even when they were calling me I did not pick up the call for three days until my wife picked it up and they told me to come to the head office.

“I did not believe it until when I got here; saw the car and the key was handed over to me. I thank First Bank and Verve for this opportunity given to me. I pray that God will continue to bless them.”
