Nairobi, Kenya 15th February 2023… Moses Kiprono, a 23-year-old Form 4 leaver is the
newest multi-millionaire in town. Mr. Moses placed a Ksh 49 bet and correctly predicted
the outcome of 17 games to win himself a whooping 200 Million Kenya Shillings in the
Betika Mega Jackpot. Moses now becomes the second winner of Betikas Mega jackpot,
just two months after the first one was won by Eli Kipruto in December 2022.
Mr. Moses, who hails from Fort Tenan, currently lives in Kericho with a friend, having left
home to hustle and fend for himself and family. Being the second born in a family of 9 and
the first son to the family, he felt obligated to hustle to support his mum and younger
siblings.
Moses Kiprono completed his form 4 education in 2020 and was due to join college, but
due to financial constraints, he resorted to hustling, with the hope that one day he would
return to the classroom and pursue his dream career as a quantity surveyor. Some of his
younger siblings are still in school while others dropped out due to financial and health
challenges. With teary eyes, Moses narrates these circumstances to us; the circumstances
that denied them quality education and a better life. But that is bound to change after this
Mega win.
“Nilimaliza high school in 2020 during Corona, na sikupata chance ya kuendelea na
masomo kwa sababu ya hali ya nyumbani. So I decided to do manual work ndio nipate kitu
kidogo niweze kusaidia familia” Moses Narrates.
Moses is a big fan of Chelsea football club and is hoping that they finish in the top 4 and
qualify for the champions league, come next season. He spends between Sh. 50 to Sh. 100
on sportsbook and on Jackpots, with his biggest wins before the Jackpot being a Sh. 5,800
on a multibet and about Sh. 23,000 from Jackpot bonuses.
“I usually bet on Pre-match mostly and sometimes Midweek jackpot. I don’t bet much on the
Grand jackpot, although I have ever won bonuses twice for 12/17 predictions and 13/17
predictions.” Looking back home, Moses now hopes to change the face of their family and
lift their living standards. “This money is going to change my life and my entire family. I am
very grateful to Betika for this Jackpot and for offering me a financial advisor because to be
honest, I haven’t figured out what to do with the money yet. ” He added.
Speaking during the handover of the cheque, Betika’s Senior Brand Meister, Mr Eric Mwiti
congratulated Moses on this big win and expressed delight on how punters have
embraced the Betika Jackpot since it’s first winner in December.
“A lot of our customers joked that our Jackpot was really hard to win due to the games
selection. We listened and tried to have a different mix of games from various football
leagues around the world, and now we have Ksh 400 Million being won within two months.”
He further urged Betika customers to play responsibly and ensure that they only bet with
what they can afford. “We strongly encourage all our customers to engage in responsible
betting and seek help should they feel like they are spinning out of control. We are strong
proponents of responsible gaming, and that is why we provide a toll-free guidance and
counselling service that is available to customers on 0800-724835.” He said.
Betika’s Senior Product Manager Joseph Mbugua also expressed his joy following Moses’
win. ‘Moses, you have joined the hall of fame and your name will be written among other
Betika Champions. We are happy to be awarding you today and hope that this amount will
change your life and those of your loved ones for the better.”
Moses joins Betika’s Hall of fame being the second person to ever win Betika’s 200M mega
jackpot alongside other winners of the Midweek Jackpot. Moses Kiprono will receive
Sh.160M and Ksh. 40 million will be paid out to the taxman. “As mentioned by my
colleagues, we have a financial advisor that will be at your service, because 160 million is a
lot of money if spent wisely.” Said Mutua Mutava, Betika’s Chief Finance Officer.
Besides the sh. 200Million, this jackpot has other amazing bonuses for 0/17 slot and from
12/17 – 16/17 slots. We also have a free bet award for those who get 11/17 predictions
just to make sure majority of participants go home with something.
