MTN Nigeria has announced that a total of ₦579 million has been awarded to 3,121 customers in its ongoing Mega Billion Promo, a 90-day nationwide initiative designed to reward loyal subscribers with life-changing prizes.
The promo, which began on June 23, 2025, continues to gain momentum across Nigeria, offering customers the opportunity to win cash rewards and smaller daily prizes simply by recharging their lines.
MTN: A Customer-First Commitment
Speaking on the initiative’s impact, Dr. Karl Toriola, Chief Executive Officer of MTN Nigeria, reaffirmed the company’s dedication to empowering its subscribers.
“We understand the evolving needs of our customers. The MTN Mega Billion Promo is our way of giving back, providing tangible value, and demonstrating our unwavering commitment to their financial well-being. We remain customer-first in everything we do,” Toriola said.
According to MTN, many winners are using their earnings not just for personal gain but also to support families, invest in small businesses, and access essential services—highlighting the wider socio-economic ripple effect of the rewards.
Life-Changing Stories
One notable winner is Deborah Obuhoro, who won ₦5 million on her birthday.
“Growing up has been very difficult for me, taking care of myself, my siblings, my family. I’ve never even had a million naira in my account. Now I’m five million naira rich. It’s like a dream come true,” she said.
Such stories underscore how the promo is creating opportunities that extend beyond financial relief, helping ordinary Nigerians pursue new possibilities.
Onyinye Ikenna-Emeka, Chief Marketing Officer of MTN Nigeria, highlighted the role of MoMo Payment Service Bank (MoMo PSB) in facilitating prize disbursements.
“The MTN Mega Billion Promo is more than a reward scheme. It is a strategic initiative to empower customers through MoMo PSB. By leveraging MoMo for prize disbursements, we are not only facilitating winnings, but we are also driving broader financial inclusion,” she explained.
How the Promo Works
The Mega Billion Promo aims to produce 195 millionaires and 5,460 total winners within 90 days. Prizes include daily cash rewards, a ₦5 million jackpot on weekdays, and a ₦10 million jackpot in the Saturday Mega Draw, which serves as the weekly highlight of the campaign.
To participate, customers dial *900# to opt in and recharge with as little as ₦100.
MTN Nigeria describes the promo as part of its broader mission to empower Nigerians, drive inclusion, and create opportunities that go beyond connectivity—positioning itself not just as a telecom operator but as a partner in progress for millions of Nigerians.
