Ezekiel Oimba, an employee at the Kenya Ferry Services is the latest gambler in Kenya to win SportPesa’s midweek jackpot of Sh22,244,187.
As luck would have it, the 39-year-old admitted he did not expect to win although he had been in the game for a while.
"I was quiet for a few minutes when I got the text message on Saturday," Oimba said.
He hopes to get into real estate and start a couple of projects with his newly acquired millions.
Oimba attributes skill and patience to betting. "I never gave up. I have been trying this for three years now," he said.
