Throughout the month of Ramadan, The Owlet, Africa’s social media Marketplace, dished free lunch/Iftar packages to loyal Muslim customers across Africa.
Over hundred Owlet App users in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Uganda, and Kenya broke their fast with extra special meals from their favourite vendors, courtesy of The Owlet. The tech company chose to make beautiful moments for Muslims around the continent – as a way to give back.
Elijah Olusehinde Kolawole, the Owlet CEO, spoke on the special campaign ran by his company saying, “We understand how important these times are for our Muslim users, and this is our token of encouragement to them.”
“We have a lot of Muslims on our teams so we know how much this reflective period means for them. The initiative was a team decision to randomly gift our dear consumers. It is always a good time to show kindness, especially a tough time like this globally. We chose to spread a little cheer to as many corners as possible,” he said
Kolawole also reiterated The Owlet’s desire to keep smiles on faces throughout the holy season. “For us, this is not a one-day thing. It is continuous. We will continue showing love to our Muslim brethren and try to be there with them through this delicate time and ensure we make them happy as they seek the face of God,” he said.
