Eric Musyoki Musembi, a 35-year-old Clinical Officer from Machakos County, is the first winner of the KES 1 million monthly grand prize in the ongoing Gomoka na Go Monthly Promotion by Safaricom.
“When I received a call from Safaricom’s official line, 0722 000 000, informing me I had won KES 1 million, I was excited beyond measure. I heard about the promotion in the media and participated by purchasing All-in-One bundles and spinning the wheel. I had won data bundles before, but I never expected to win KES 1 million,” said Eric Musyoki.
He says the money will be an excellent cushion for him during these challenging economic times. As a firstborn in a family of five, he is responsible for taking care of his aged parents and younger siblings, and the money will come in handy when doing that. He will also use the funds to finish personal projects, settle a few debts and possibly start some small income-generating activities in their home.
