While handing over the dummy cheque Isaiah Semamuli the MTN Uganda Senior Manager Eastern Region Operations congratulated Muzafaru and encouraged the people of Jinja to continue using the mobile money service as any of them could be a winner.

Due to the closure of academic institutions amidst the Covid19 pandemic, Muzafaru who is back to his hometown in Jinja decided to take up a part time job as a mechanic in one of the garages in Jinja town.

At a young age, Muzafaru has to work and bring money to the table in order to support his mother who is faced with a big challenge of exorbitant medical bills for the treatment of her heart condition.

With a sigh of relief, Muzafaru noted that finally some of his mother’s medical bills will get paid off using the money he had won while some of it will go towards fixing the tyres of the tow truck he uses since it is his livelihood.

Muzafaru was hesitant about believing his luck when the show hosts, Zahara Tooto and Patricko Mujuuka contacted him.

“The questions they asked me were so easy, I thought it was too good to be true. It is now that I am able to believe that I’m a millionaire thanks to MoMoNyabo Together," he said, shortly before excitedly acknowledging how real the promotion is.

Apart from the two winners called in studio every week day, 250 people win Shs 50,000 directly every day.

All you have to do is use the MyMTN app or dial *165# and pay for airtime, data, yaka, water, TV subscription or anything else  using MTN MoMo and stand a chance to win up to 5 million shillings for you and your loved ones.

“This is a once in a lifetime promotion and it is real, don’t be a doubting Thomas like I was, simply dial *165# and pay your bills, buy goods and stand a chance to win millions like I did,” Muzafaru said while encouraging the users of MTN’s mobile money service to take part in the promotion.
