CHAPTER ONE and not CHAPTER 1 in the body of a thesis

Question

Thanks to @AlanMunn for the answers given in the question asked in the link.

Chapter number and chapter title in one line

What I want is:

CHAPTER ONE: the chapter name/title

and not

Chapter 1: The chapter name/title

I was able to do this

CHAPTER 1: the chapter name/title

I need to change "1" to "ONE" without affecting anything on the toc.

I used the following code

\usepackage{titletoc,fmtcount,titlesec}
\titleformat{\chapter}[hang]
{\normalfont\large\bfseries}{\MakeUppercase\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter:}{1em}{}

\titlespacing*{\chapter}{0pt}{0pt}{0pt}% this reduces the space between the chapter title and section

Please how do I go about it?

Welcome to TeX SX! Do you also want CHAPTER ONE in the table of contents? — Bernard, Nov 29 '19 at 14:15

Since you load fmtcount, it is particularly easy for the chapter heading:

\usepackage{titletoc,fmtcount,titlesec} 
\titleformat{\chapter}[hang]{\normalfont\large\bfseries}{\MakeUppercase\chaptertitlename\ \NUMBERstring{chapter}:}{1em}{}
