A mechanic in Lagos, a computer technician in Osun, a retired civil servant in Abuja, and a wood merchant in Imo are the latest everyday Nigerians to become millionaires through First City Monument Bank's (FCMB) ongoing Millionaire Promo Season 10.

Yusuf Abdulrasak, an automobile mechanic; Taiwo Adeagbo, a computer technician; Victor Ifeachor, a retired civil servant; and Kingsley Nnadi, a wood merchant, each received ?1 million at the sixth draw of the promo, held nationwide on August 13, 2025. The promo rewarded an additional 1,000 customers who received up to ?50,000 in cash prizes.

For Taiwo, the prize is an opportunity to grow his business and empower others.

"With the ?1 million, I hope to expand my computer repair services and offer training to young people interested in technology. This will sustain my business and empower the youth in my community," he said.

Yusuf, the Lagos mechanic, sees it as a turning point:

"This ?1 million is a blessing and a stepping stone. I look forward to upgrading my workshop and acquiring new tools to serve my customers better," he explained.

Kingsley called his ?1 million prize "a dream come true", adding that the money will help him stock more wood and expand his reach.

Victor, the retired civil servant, described it as "timely relief during challenging times" and urged more Nigerians to bank with FCMB.

Adetunji Lamidi, Divisional Head of Personal Banking at FCMB, said:

"The Millionaire Promo is about people. It is about supporting our customers' dreams, helping them grow their businesses, and creating opportunities to thrive. Seeing loyal customers like Yusuf, Taiwo, Kingsley, and Victor plan to use their prizes to expand their businesses and improve their lives reflects the true purpose of this promo."

The FCMB Millionaire Promo Season 10, which runs until September 2025, is open to new and existing savings account holders. Dormant accounts can also be reactivated for participation. Customers qualify by increasing their savings balance by at least ?10,000 and maintaining it for 30 days. Every additional ?10,000 increases their chances of becoming millionaires or receiving cash prizes in the monthly draws.

Since the promo kicked off in December 2024, 16 customers have become millionaires, while thousands of others have received different cash rewards. The grand finale draw holds in October.
