Some say the love of money is the root of all evil but according to Samuel Abisai, money is good! Abisai was the 2017 Sportpesa Mega jackpot winner, walking away with a whooping Sh221million. Looking back, he says he struggled to come to terms with the good news at the time but it slowly sunk in.

While speaking to Daniel Ndambuki on Churchill Show, Abisai stated that he was living in Nairobi’s Umoja estate and did some research before placing a Sh200 bet. He opened up on being nervy as he followed all the games that had been included in the jackpot and even leaving his house once he knew he had correctly predicted several outcomes.
