Mercury International Hands Over $80,000 House to Lucky Raffle Winner

Mercury International has officially handed over the keys to an $80,000 house to the winner of its MercuryBet Grand Grand Raffle “Win a House” raffle competition in a ceremony held on Monday at TAF Salone Micro City.
The lucky winner, Abu Fumba, received the keys to the fully constructed property following a raffle draw organized by the company as part of its customer reward initiatives.

Speaking during the handover ceremony, Mercury International Managing Director Martin Michael described the occasion as a special moment for the company, its customers, retailers, and staff.

He explained that the “Win a House” promotion was launched several months ago and concluded after the World Cup tournament, with the winner selected through the company’s raffle process.

“This is probably the biggest prize we have ever given away, and as long as we continue to have the opportunity, we will create more competitions that will benefit our customers,” Mr. Michael said.

He noted that Mercury International has previously rewarded customers with various prizes, including vehicles, motorcycles, phones, and other items, but described the house as a milestone achievement.

Mr. Michael also praised the company’s retailers and customers, stating that their commitment and support have contributed significantly to Mercury International’s growth.

“Without the hard work and dedication of our retailers and the support of our customers, initiatives like this would not be possible,” he said.

The company disclosed that the house, excluding furniture, is valued at approximately US$80,000, equivalent to more than two million new Leones.

The winner, Abu Fumba expressed joy and disbelief, saying he initially thought the announcement was not real until he was contacted by the company.

“I am very happy today. I never believed this would happen, but receiving the keys has shown me that the game is real,” he said.

He encouraged customers to participate in Mercury International’s promotions, adding that winners receive their prizes once they are verified.

The handover ceremony brought together representatives from Mercury International, retailers, customers, and members of the media to witness the presentation of the property to its new owner.
