Oct 02, 2016

Leo Beyagira, Eriasa Kategano, Isaac Lubega, and Wilson Awuzu are the earlier winners from similar draws.

There were no people nearby or around Ronald Kansere when he was sounded as the 5th winner from the City Tyres-Pirelli Formula 1 draw at City Tyres head office Industrial Area on Saturday.

But he could not hide his excitement as Mandela Group acting chairman Robert Kabushenga announced the good news to him on phone.

"I'm calling to inform you that you have won the prize to travel to Abu Dhabi to watch the Formula 1 grand finale at the Yas Marina; if you have your family nearby or even the entire village you can tell them to celebrate," Kabushenga joked as Kansere told him he was alone.

"I want to congratulate all the people who have participated and those who have won in this promotion and to thank City Tyres for enabling Ugandans to go and experience a completely different sport. I would also like to thank partners in the media who have publicized not only this promotion but Formula 1 in particular which has now made the sport more popular," Kabushenga noted.

"I also wish City Tyres could bring Formula 1 to Uganda; even it is the car or one of the drivers so that we can also experience F1,"
Kansere bought his Pirelli tyres from the City Oil Kira road branch on September 23.

He will, together with seven other people (three to be drawn next month) enjoy an all-expenses paid trip and receive VVIP treatment at the Yas Marina Circuit in November.

Leo Beyagira, Eriasa Kategano, Isaac Lubega, and Wilson Awuzu are the earlier winners from similar draws.

Apart from the four days and nights they are going to spend at the seven star Marriot Hotel, the winners will also have chance to tour some of the city's top tourist attractions.

Other winners picked on the day won City Oil full service, 50 liters of fuel, a dinner for two at Café Javas and two of the winners will have their cars aligned and head lights fixed for free while others will enjoy a Café Javas Specialty cake and City Oil car service respectively.

City Tyres Marketing Manager Herbert Bashasa said there will be a special draw next month where three winners will be picked.
"Next month the Pirelli Milan team will be here to conduct the final draw. The chances are high since we are picking three people so I would like to encourage vehicle owners to continue buying Pirelli," Bashasha said.
