SportPesa has unveiled Mr. Edwin Maina as the latest Mega Jackpot Bonus winner, walking away with a whopping Sh5,295,816 after correctly predicting 16 out of 17 matches.
While narrating his journey, Mr. Edwin said he began betting with SportPesa in 2017 using small stakes.
According to Edwin, he had previously won smaller bonuses of Sh20,000 and Sh40,000, experiences that motivated him to continue trying his luck, eventually landing the life-changing Mega Jackpot Bonus win.
Maina described moments of doubt, excitement, and disbelief after receiving a phone call from SportPesa informing him that he had won.
“Since I had not actively checked the results, I decided to verify everything myself by counter-checking the betting slip to confirm that all the predictions were correct,” he narrated.
“At first, I could not believe it. I even went back home to confirm everything properly. When I checked my SportPesa balance, I saw over Sh. 5.2 million while I only had about KSh 500 before. I was so shocked and overwhelmed with joy,” he added.
Mr. Edwin added that the win has brought him hope and happiness and opened up new opportunities in his life.
The winner said that the money will help him complete several personal investment projects and improve his family’s welfare.
“Investment is very important. I already own a plot in Kamulu and have unfinished rental units in Mombasa that I now want to complete properly. This money will help improve my life completely and also support me in paying school fees for my children,” he added.
SportPesa has continued to change lives through its rewarding bonuses and jackpots that have brought hope and financial transformation to many Kenyans.
The SportPesa Mega Jackpot now stands at Sh. 124,274,616. Customers can place their bets with a stake of only Sh. 99. The next jackpot kicks off on 16/05/2026 at 7:30 PM.
The bonuses are awarded for correctly predicting 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 out of 17 matches.
