SportPesa presented Kamau with his cheque at a ceremony in Nairobi\u2019s central business district on\u202fDecember\u202f4<\/strong>. Kamau said he had a strong feeling a win was near after getting 11 correct predictions<\/strong> on two previous weekends. A colleague had joked about seeing him on television one day after learning he bet regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He said: \u201cI had a feeling that my win was coming soon. I never used to get a lot of correct predictions, but on two consecutive weekends I got up to 11 games correct. So on that Saturday, a colleague found out that I usually bet and joked that they would one day see me on TV. Little did I know that after 24\u202fhours I would win the Mega Jackpot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the winning weekend, Kamau noted that he followed the matches closely, which he does not usually do. The final game between Napoli and Roma<\/strong> made him especially nervous, as he had picked Napoli to win away. He said: \u201cIf the Mega Jackpot had a cash\u2011out option, I would have cashed out. The whole game I was just praying.\u201d After the result came in, he received a congratulatory message from SportPesa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kamau runs a tailoring shop in the city and plans to use the money to buy modern sewing machines and expand his workshop. He also intends to purchase a home and take his family on vacation. He stated: \u201cThis win has come at the right time because Christmas is just around the corner. As a family, we can now go on vacation without having school\u2011fee pressure in January.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He advised other players to bet responsibly and only use money they can afford to lose.<\/p>\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/focusgn.com\/africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/12\/UGANDA-dsd-300x200.jpg\")
