Cosmas Korir, the SportPesa jackpot winner of over 200 million is the talk of town after he recently launched his multi million house.
The Jackpot winner invited villagers to his fully furnished mansion for a house warming party and this got netizenz talking.
Speak of living large; the sportPesa winner built a house worth 4 million and a V8 land cruiser worthy 12 million.
His money, his rules but Kenyans have acted surprised since the car costed him more than the house did.
Korir threw a grand party for villagers at his Somorio home during the official opening of the house
According to the standard reports, the house had stalled for a while, and stood counting years for lack of funds before good fortune smiled at him in September this year. He used part of the millions to complete the house.
In the colourful event attended by dignitaries, including former Bomet County Governor Isaac Ruto, Nandi Hills MP Alfred Keter, former Konoin MP Sammy Koech among others, Korir expressed his happiness, vowing to continue betting despite his big win. He is an employee of West Pokot County.
“I’m very happy. I want to stay rich and that means I’ll not stop betting. I’ll also not quit my job either,” Korir said.
Kenyans reacting to this move and cost difference, personally I would say it all depends on the priorities and the value that one sees for the money.
