Taxi driver Baker Nssera's royalty to the City Oil services has finally paid off after he was drawn as one of the lucky winners who will enjoy an all-expense paid trip to Dubai from the City Oil Desert Challenge draw.

Nssera was one of the three winners picked from the fifth promotion draw held at the City Oil Kyambogo branch on Wednesday. The others Lawrence Ssozi and Elly Tumwine, won in the drive-in category.

Two others; Hassan Birimuye and Kennedy Atik, won free fuel worth sh100,000 and free wheel balancing and alignment, respectively, from the draw that rewards up to seven winners.

“I am very happy and excited to have won this trip and I would like to thank City Tyres for giving back to their customers and for their good car service, it is even fantastic when they give back to us,” Nserra, who rushed in after being drawn by USPA president Al Sayed Lubega said.

“I am excited that it is me who has been picked from the many entries. I would like to thank the staff of City Oil especially those from the Namirembe Road branch where I service from. These people are reliable and the best in the business and they are always in touch to ensure our vehicles are in the best shape,” Nssera stated.

City Oil Marketing Manager Herbert Bashaasha who was flanked by sales executive Mahad Twaha and manager-service Bonny Ssemuli encouraged those who haven’t won yet to continue using their services at the different service stations to stand a chance from the remaining draw.

“We will take 18 people to Dubai in the all-expense paid trip. There are three more slots to fill and this promotion is very simple all one has to do is service their vehicle at any of our stations to enter the draw. We decided to add the taxi category because they have supported us for a long time so we are giving back to them,” Bashaasha stated.

Stephen Bulega and James Ssemujju from the Uganda Taxi Operators Federation encouraged their colleagues in the business to continue using City Oil services to stand a chance of winning.

The other winners that are already in from the previous draws include Brian Nyanzi, Joshua Zaake, Julius Kisombo, Joseph Akatuhwera, Akol Lawal, Kamya Ssegawa, Rosette Asiimwe, Hajati Kakande, Sulaiman Batte, Allen Barozi, Clare Namirimu and Kamada Mutyaba

To enter the draw drive in and service your car at any of the City Oil outlets where you will fill in a coupon which will be entered in a draw. One draw remains before the winners travel to Dubai.
