DIGICEL ANNOUNCES WINNER OF REGGAETOWN PREMIUM SMS GAME

September 6th 2011 - Reggaetown Win

Friday, 2nd September, 2011 Digicel today announced Wari Ananias as the winner of their Reggaetown Premium SMS Competition. Wari will be flying to Cairns, Australia on September 9th, staying at a fabulous resort, going to the Reggaetown Festival, and spending 20,000VT!

 

Wari was randomly selected as the winner out of all of the Digicel Vanuatu customers who entered the competition in August. When Betty Nafuki, Marketing Assistant at Digicel Vanuatu, called Wari to tell him he was the winner yesterday, he was overwhelmed. Wari told her, “I have entered most of Digicel’s promotions since I became one of Digicel’s first customers. I always hoped to win one day, but I never expected to win today!”

 

Wari is originally from South Pentecost although he now lives and works in Port Vila. He has never been overseas so flying to Australia will be the realization of his long-held dream to travel. Once in Australia, Wari will go to the Reggaetown Festival to hear artists such as O-shen, Third World, Jah Boy, and Jah Mason. Wari is looking forward to seeing O-Shen the most saying, “I will love seeing O-Shen live on stage.” 
 
As soon as the Reggaetown Festival heard from Digicel that Wari had never traveled before and that he loved reggae, they gave him a VIP Pass and an opportunity to meet Bob Marley's son Rohan Marley!

 

Digicel Vanuatu CEO, Mr. John Clancy, said, “We would like to thank everyone who entered the Reggaetown Premium SMS Competition! It is a very exciting win for Wari and we really hope he enjoys his trip to the Reggaetown Festival in Cairns!”  He added, “There are more chances to win with Digicel this month. Customers can text ‘Harvest’ to 204 to play our another Premium SMS game. Each text costs 50VT and players gain points each time they play -  there are weekly prizes and and the ultimate prize in the final week-  300,000VT plus a brand new Play Station 3.
