Explaining the promo mechanics, Amber stated that consumers are required to buy Indomie 120g Super pack where a unique number can be found printed on the seasoning sachet inside the pack.

Lucky winner of the 1 million naira cash prize, Mr. Sheriff Ayinde Salihu, an engineer from Nassarawa State, couldn’t contain his excitement and joy during the ceremony. He said, “Words can’t express how I feel right now. It’s like a dream. The Indomie pack which won me this 1 million naira was bought from a supermarket on credit. I am yet to even pay for it. When I got the call that I had won, I doubted it. I assumed it was a fraudulent call. After series of calls I was asked to come to Lagos. When I arrived in Lagos, I was still in doubt. It sounded too good to be true. But I am glad today that it is indeed true. My joy knows no bounds. I am very grateful to Indomie.”
Mrs Lasisi Dada, Miss Seun Taiwo from Lagos State, Mr Tijani Ahmed and Mr Akintunde Yusuf from Ogun State were also presented with N100, 000 cheques.
