This is one of the biggest wins in Africa and for Kenya’s largest online sports betting service SportPesa.

Samuel Abisai was picked up in a white limousine together with his friends and brother from his home in Roysambu, which is approximately 12 kilometers from the Nairobi central business district.

He was chauffeur-driven with an escort of commercial motorbike riders (Boda Boda) leading him to a restaurant for a cheque presentation ceremony.
