Commenting on the contest, Head of Campaign Management for Africa, Salim Ali Mohammed Dahman said: “The Dubai Shopping Festival has been always been an event that the entire city really gets into. Now going into its 25th anniversary means it will be grander than ever before. We know that our African visitors love to shop; whether for luxury items or just the basics, they rate shopping as one of the top things they love to do when visiting Dubai. For us, we wanted to take this special occasion to invite first-time visitors or those coming back to Dubai again with a warm welcome and a heavy dose of retail therapy. As a city, we are rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this milestone and encourage everyone in Nigeria and Ghana to participate in this competition.”
