The two loyal customers, who received N1 million Naira prize each at the presentation of of cash and gift prizes to winners in the ongoing Get Alert In Millions(GAIM) season 4 promo held by the bank in Lagos, were all smiles by the time they left the venue on Monday.

They were glad that the bank did not fail them after so much trust.

Regulatory bodies, the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC)and Lagos State Lotteries Board (LSLB) were on stand to make sure that bank keep its words with the customers.
