Speaking on Monday during the cheque handover ceremony at Premier Bet head office in Limbe, Khomera (31) placed a stake of two separate bets of K5,000 each and was so overwhelmed that she indicated she will invest the winnings into building her dream modern house.
“It feels good to be the first big winner in this new game,” she said. Honestly, when I was playing the game, I didn’t expect that I might become a winner.
“This money will really play a big role to me because I have a number of plans and one of it is to build myself a good house,” she said.
