Eddy Kikonyogo, a young man from the ghetto of Bwaise in Kampala, has won Shs 397 million from the Aviator game courtesy of BetPawa.
Kikonyogo, 30, said he had been in betting business for the 10 years.
“I have gotten back my money. I have been saving. I call this a bank because deep in my heart l knew one day I will win,” Kikonyogo said.
He said he used two tickets worth Shs 2,000 to win the bounty. Kikonyogo has two children and his plans are to educate them and put up a house.
“I never went to school so l want to give my children the best that l didn’t get so that they don’t end up like me. I want my own address so that am also recognized as important as others,” he said.
He advised the youth who want to engage in betting business to work hard because betting involves huge capital. BetPawa gave him a special treat with a flight from Kajjansi in Entebbe to Jinja.
