Total Nigeria has concluded plans to sponsor 14 lucky customers to the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon, to watch the semifinal and the final matches.

The firm revealed that the first batch of seven winners will attend the semifinal, while the second set of winners will watch the final live in Gabon.

The Managing Director, Total Nigeria, Jean-Phillipe Torres, disclosed in Lagos yesterday that as the title  sponsor of the  AFCON tournament for  the next eight years, Total would spread the excitement across the globe, and across  Africa, in particular.

“It is saddening that Nigeria did not qualify for Gabon 2017 tournament but we are ready to bring smiles to the faces of Nigerian football fans by taking some to Gabon to witness events for themselves. It is a way of telling our customers that we cherish them and share their dreams,” he said, adding that Total had been in Africa for 80 years.

“Out of those years, we have been in Nigeria for 60 years. And we hope to remain here for a long time to come,” he reaffirmed.

Speaking on the promo, Adesua Adewole, General Manager, Sales and Marketing, Total Nigeria said the gesture was to give something back to the society and their customers,  in particular, for being with them these  past decades.

“The promo is simple. Buy items worth N2, 000 in any Total service station to get a scratch card,  the details are on the flip side  of  the scratch card and one stands a chance of winning a ticket to Gabon.”
