A NURSE with Marie Stoppes clinic yesterday won a Philips radio cassette player in the first draw of the "Winner Takes It Home" promotion jointly sponsored by The New Vision and Musicraft, reports John Eremu. Janet Okanya's lucky ticket was picked by New Vision managing director William Pike in a colourful ceremony at Musicraft shop opposite the Constitutional Square. "I am just too surprised. I didn't expect it," said the beaming Okanya as she received the prize from the paper's sales and marketing chief David Waweru. Musicraft managing director Abdul Kara and marketing manager Sam Ikopit witnessed the ceremony. The 10-week competition launched last week will see The New Vision readers win a prize from Musicraft each week. The promotion will culminate in a grand draw on January 12, 2001 in which three lucky readers will carry home luxurious sets of furniture. The first prize will comprise a carpet, a sofa set, a coffee set, a wall unit cabinet, a dining room set, a radio cassette player, a colour television, a six-burner gas cooker, a fridge and a double and a single bed. The second prize will comprise a six-burner gas cooker and a fridge. The third prize will be a double and a single bed. Pike encouraged readers to participate in the competition describing the grand prize as "a dream prize." He said The New Vision/Musicraft combination had made the competition superb. He said there were over 15,000 entries in the first week of the competition. Ikopit and Waweru said the response was overwhelming. "We have had encouraging sales," said Waweru, flanked by sales promotion executive Rhona Kanabahita. Ikopit said customers had been flocking Musicraft shops since the promotion opened a week ago. "The promotion is in line with our motto of making dreams come true," Ikopit said. He said Musicraft offers hire purchase services. Ends.
