UP man to get over Rs 5.5 lakh every month for next 25 years
text_fieldsDubai: An Indian-origin Architect has won a new mega prize in the United Arab Emirates and will receive more than Dh25,000 (Rs 5,59,822) every month for the next 25 years.
Mohammed Adil Khan from Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, who has been working at a real estate company in Dubai for five years, participated in the Emirates Draw's FAST5 game for the first time and became the lucky winner.
“I am the sole bread earner for my family. My brother passed away during the pandemic and I am supporting his family. I have aged parents and a five-year-old daughter. So, the extra money comes just in time," Khan said.
"I also told my family and they could not believe it either. They said to double-check the news for its authenticity," he said.
Emirates Draw launched its FAST5 game nearly 8 weeks ago which offers participants the fastest route to winning with a single Dh25 ticket.
In addition to competing for the Dh25,000 grand prize every month for the next 25 years, three participants can also win substantial amounts of Dh75,000, Dh50,000, and Dh25,000 each in the raffle draw.
Paul Chader, Head of Marketing, Tycheros which organises Emirates Draw, said, “We are glad to announce our first winner for FAST 5 in less than eight weeks of its launch.
The reason why we call it FAST 5 is because it is the fastest way to become a multi-millionaire.”
He added that the idea behind staggered payments is to secure the winner.
