Under the campaign named and styled MoMo Waysay- Wasa Version 2, LoneStar Cell MTN is conducting a raffle every week up to the end of September 2022 and will contact winners to pick up their prizes.

Speaking to journalists after receiving the grand prize for the day, Emmett Gbotto expressed excitement over winning the kehkeh. He said he never even dreamt of such a moment.

“I was at work [and] they called me [to] say I won Kehkeh. I did not believe it and so I decided never to come,” Gbotto explained.

“[The] other girl took my number and told me that it’s not [a] scam, still I did not believe it,” he added.

Gbotto noted that his friend convinced him and when they went to check it out, he realized that it was true.

“I am super happy but all I want to say to my Liberian people, it’s true, but let’s keep using LoneStar Cell money for transactions,” he concluded.

Narrating how they won, Ms. Rebecca Kiadii of Sinkor, Patricia M. Doe and Comfort Kpogbah said they use LoneStar Cell Mobile Money to pay their Liberia Electricity Corporation (LEC) bills, DSTV and do regular transactions by sending and receiving money via the platform.

They said they were excited to be lucky customers.

In an overview, Bobby S. Lekpyee, LoneStar Cell MTN Mobile Money Operations Manager, told the gathering that it was a great day for the company’s customers and agents.

“That is what LoneStar Cell MTN MoMo Waysaywasa is all about. Anything you win from LoneStar MTN MoMo Waysaywasa 2 you don’t have to pay anything for it,” he said.

He cautioned that people will take advantage of this to call and say you won a prize but would demand money from you or your pin before receiving your prize.

“You don’t pay for anything you win from LoneStar MTN.  When you win from MoMo Waysaywasa we will call you on 0886500000,” he continued.
