To join the lucky millionaire club, all you need to do is open a Skye Save plus or Skye Ease savings Account and make a minimum deposit of two thousand naira into the account. If you already have a Skye Save Plus or Skye Ease account, with additional deposit of N2, 000 minimum you stand a chance of becoming our next millionaire.”

Nkolika continued “The more deposits in multiples of N2,000 you make, the more your chances to be one of the three customers to be rewarded with one million naira each on a monthly basis. We have made it very easy for every Nigerian to open a savings account either by SMS code using their phones (no data connection is needed, just dial *833*1#), on-line through the bank's web site or by walking into any of the bank's 400 branches nationwide".
