Sierra Leone’s leading Sports Betting and Lottery Company, Mercury International, continues to change the lives of its customers through its various products, and the latest life-changing winning came through the 5/90 Lotto draw.
Forecaster, Mohamed Sorie, a lucky winner from the Mercury Daru draw, walked away with a whopping sum of Two Hundred and Twelve Million, Eight Hundred and Ten Old Leone (Le 212, 810,000); Two hundred and twelve thousand, eight hundred and ten Leones (Nle 212,810).
The Businessman cum Lotto Forcaster placed a total sum of Nle 70 bet on two different tickets, with the numbers 27, 28, 81, 49, and 52.
Meanwhile, one of his two tickets, with the Nle 50 betting stake, gave him the big winning prize of Nle 127,658 (One hundred and twenty-seven thousand six hundred and fifty-eight Leones).
On the other ticket, he placed an additional stake of Nle 20 bet with the same five numbers, and eventually won an additional Nle 85,153 (Eighty-Five Thousand, One Hundred and Fifty-Three Leones) earning him a total winnings of Nle 212,810.
This isn’t Sorie’s first time seeing him win a big amount with Mercury International, as the consistent customer had previously won Nle 80,000 (Eighty Thousand Leones)
For him, the joy of winning is not just about the money, but what it represents for his family.
He said: “I must applaud Mercury International for its credibility and instant payment, with this money, I can now purchase a ticket for my daughter, who has just secured a visa to Canada.”
“Winning this lottery has been a blessing. I was wondering where I would get the money to pay for my daughter’s ticket,” he added.
“I am happy that I can now support my daughter’s dream of studying in Canada. This wouldn’t have been possible without Mercury International.”
This win becomes the recent individual Lotto payout after a huge payout of over 3 Million New Leone was made a few weeks back to over three thousand customers.
