Facebook says Ebube doesn't exist, but she's got a fanPage to celebrate her victory.
Barely few days after the NCC placed a ban on promos by telecom
networks, MTN Nigeria was quick to announce the winner of their Ultimate
Wonder Promo which saw one miss Ebube Essien-Garricks emerging as the
winner of the promo as reported by Punch.
To fulfill all righteousness and kill-off our suspicion of fraud, we
did a random search of Ebube Essien-Garricks on Facebook; the world
largest social media with over 1billion users. To our greatest shock,
Ebube was no where to be found. At her age as MTN claims, 27 and a
student of Uniport, we can argue till eternity that she must be on
Facebook. Unfortunately, MTN Nigeria has become victims of their own
fraud and
manipulation as they forgot to create a profile for her.
Maybe
they thought of it, but were convinced that Nigerians will eat whatever
they say as they have been doing for over 10-years. Although, the other
argument is that, it would have been more obvious, had MTN created a
profile for Ebube as her timeline would indicate it was created only a
few days ago.
Eitherway, we do not see how any business
organization would give out N64 million for fun when it still has areas
of lack. We are highly disappointed at the NCC. A proper investigation
committee should be immediately set-up to verify the data of the said
girl. Her institution where MTN claims she studies should also be
thoroughly investigated. Her place of birth, schools attended and where
Ebube performs her religion rights must also be investigated.

If all is lies MTN must not get away with this. Enough is Enough. Even NCC need to be overhaul.
