In a Christmas season twist of fate, Gabriel Orpin, a rice, cassava, and yam farmer from Benue State, has won a ₦5 million jackpot through BetKing Virtuals. The humble farmer, whose days are usually spent tending to his crops, is now planning big dreams for himself and his family.
“I’ve always loved farming,” Gabriel shared with excitement. “It’s my passion, and I’ve been managing well. But winning ₦5 million? I never imagined something like this would happen to me.”
Gabriel’s journey with BetKing began in June 2024 when he first tried their Virtuals platform. Starting with small wins of ₦5,000 and ₦18,000, Gabriel remained consistent, playing daily with the minimum amount during the promotion period. His consistency paid off, and he received a life-changing call confirming his jackpot win.
“When they called, I thought it was a mistake,” he said. “But they explained everything, and it became real. My family couldn’t believe it either.”
Determined to claim his prize, Gabriel braved the journey to Lagos despite warnings about the risks of the big city. “People told me Lagos is dangerous, but I saw this as my chance. When I got there, I found out BetKing was true to their word,” he said.
The jackpot win is part of BetKing’s *Christmas Jingle Bets* campaign, which also includes the *Danfo Santa* initiative. This campaign has spread joy by providing food items and festive cheer to communities across Lagos.
Gabriel has big plans for his winnings, starting with purchasing land to expand his farm and building a house for his family. “Farming is my passion, and this money will help me grow it even more. I also plan to start a small business to ensure the money keeps flowing,” he said.
Beyond his personal dreams, Gabriel wants to share his experience with friends, teaching them how to bet on BetKing Virtuals in the hopes they, too, might experience such fortune.
In a heartfelt message to BetKing, Gabriel said, “Thank you, BetKing. May God bless you for what you’ve done for me. I pray you continue to bring joy to others just like this.”
Nengi Akinola, Head of Marketing at BetKing, expressed her excitement about Gabriel’s story. “Gabriel’s win embodies what BetKing stands for – transforming lives and creating memorable experiences for our customers. His story inspires others to dream big and pursue their goals,” she said.
