Akwa v Heartland: Dana Promise Fan
Nigerian football fans stand a chance to win return tickets at the re-scheduled first leg encounter between Akwa United and Heartland in Uyo on Wednesday courtesy of Dana Air.
According to the Media and Communications Manager, of the company Kingsley Ezenwa, the move is targeted at reviving the interest of Nigerians in the domestic league.
He said, ‘’We are trying to encourage more people to follow our Nigerian teams, players, and also visit match venues to cheer on their teams to victory. So we shall be giving out return tickets to lucky football fans and spectators at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo and during the return leg in Owerri.’’
Ezenwa said gate takings is one of the ways teams in the English Premier League make money, because they use the proceeds plus money from sponsorships to create an environment conducive to the fans, promote their activities and maintain their facilities.
Dana official added, “We are also going to be promoting the match on all our social media platforms and fans can also win tickets and loads of other prizes when they participate in the predict and win competition. This is one of the many initiatives and incentives that will come as a result of our commitment to developing the Nigerian football league and our sponsorship of these two Nigerian professional league sides.’’
