Mr Edeh pointed out that coming up in the no-too-distant future is Diamond Bank’s nationwide monthly draw in which thirteen people will be awarded the sum of N1m Naira each, two people the sum of N2 million each and one lucky person will win the salary-for-life which sees the winner earn a salary from Diamond Bank plc every month for a period of twenty years.
     To qualify for the monthly draw, Mr. Osita Edeh  informed the gathering  that all a customer needs to do is maintain a minimum monthly balance of N5,000.00 while additional deposits would count as multiple entries thereby increasing the customer’s chances of winning.
