Hotel Reservation

It’s ‘selfie o clock’ time, come March 28 and April 11 2015, two separate days that will mark future events in the Federal Republic of Nigeria –the days for the presidential and gubernatorial elections.

Hotels.ng wants to make the day memorable in the minds of Nigerians that will be going to the polling booth by giving them free hotel reservation after they vote.

To take part in the competition, simply post pictures of yourself alone, or with your with friends at any polling booth. Upload it to Twitter, Facebook or Instagram with the tags ‘#hotelsng’ and ‘#ElectionDaySelfie’. Ten people with the most dramatic selfies will be selected among entries submitted; all eligible voters are qualified to participate.

*Although we don’t know if the freebie pertains to the governorship election too, we’ve sent a mail to find this out and shall get back once we get a reply on this.

Hotels.ng, has been in the news lately for all the right reasons. The CEO, Mark Essien, made Forbes’ ’30 under 30’ list and as we reported last month, the company was among the sponsors of the first hackathon in Northern Nigeria (Hackjos).

Entries open from 7 am to 5 pm, March 28 2015.

***Update***

As a follow up of our  promise to find out if the free hotel reservation will be extended to the gubernatorial election, Hotels.ng had this to say:”the campaign was for the general election, any other changes will be communicated”.
