Edwin Kiarie Muniu has won Sh12,165,210 BetYetu jackpot after making 13 out of 13 correct predictions.

A delighted Muniu, who started betting just last year, said he did not expect the good fortunes when called to be given the good news.

“I was weeding when my phone rang. I did not recognise the caller ID but went on to answer. I was then told by the person on the other end that he was calling from BetYetu and that I had won the Jackpot money,” an ecstatic Muniu said.

Muniu, a broker and hay farmer, is married and has two children aged 1 and 10 and said he will use the money to expand his business.

“My primary goal is to buy a piece of land and build a house for my family. I will also put in some investment in my business as advised by the financial advisors I have been directed to,” he said.

Muniu called on others to consider betting with BetYetu as it is affordable and with only Sh50 you could be a millionaire.

“This game is real and you too can be a winner. I did not think I could actually win the jackpot but now I know it is possible.”

Githinji James, the Marketing Manager of BetYetu encouraged more Kenyans to participate in responsible betting noting that it provides an opportunity to analyse and support a sport while predicting to win.
