Telecommunications outfit, MTN and its partners, Arsenal FC of London will hold the first draw on April 2 to pick the first batch of lucky fans to watch live one of the Gunners matches at the Emirates.

Winners of the all-expense paid trip to Emirates will emerge via a special raffle draw to be held at the Myarky bar, Abule-Egba, Lagos and Tuscana in Enugu during the match between Arsenal and Manchester City.

Existing and potential MTN customers who have subscribed to the Arsenal contents by sending ASN to 700 will participate in a raffle draw where winners will emerge for the all-expense paid trip to England for the Arsenal match. The winners from the draws will be joining others who emerged from the first raffle draw during the launch in February,’’ he said.
The all-expense paid trip to Emirates Stadium is part of the many offerings MTN Nigeria will be doling out to existing and potential customers who subscribe to the Value Added Service (VAS) by sending ASN to 700.
