ITHUBA Uganda, the official operator of the Uganda National Lottery, is thrilled to announce the winners of the largest LOTTO jackpot in the country’s history.
Just nine weeks after ticket sales began on June 1, 2024, 11 lucky players have claimed a share of the grand prize, which exceeded UGX 1 billion.
The historic draw’s winning numbers were 8, 31, 35, 42, 46, 47, with the bonus number 6. In this monumental event, the Division 5 prize of UGX 932,340,000 will be shared among five winners who matched four out of the six winning numbers.
Additionally, the Division 6 prize of UGX 73,420,200 will be divided among six winners who matched three numbers plus the bonus number. This has now become the most significant jackpot in Uganda’s lottery history.
