TWO readers of The New Vision have won sh1m each in the Cashlines game. Andrew Kateu, an employee of Uganda Breweries Ltd, and Isaac Masola, a plant clerk of Stirling, a construction company, won the cash in the third week of the game.
The New Vision Editor-in-Chief, Els De Temmerman, handed over the money to Kateu, while Masola received his cash from circulation manager Danny Kawuma. He explained that 23 readers had so far won cash prizes amounting to sh6.5m and sh13.5m was still up for grabs.
He urged readers to continue playing the game that ends on May 26.
“People should take advantage of the remaining days to win cash prizes. All game cards have equal chances of winning.â€
Kateu said he would invest the money in a business.
“I have 15 game cards and I have been playing since the game started.
Masola, who has 20 game cards, said he played the game in the previous years without winning.
“This is great! I did not expect to win this amount.â€
He said he would use the money to pay tuition for a long-distance computer course he is pursuing.
Another winner, Michael Baganzi, a student of St. Mary’s Kitende, received sh100,000.
Baganzi played the game because his father, Sam Baganzi, buys newspapers everyday.
To play, one has to get a card, proceed to page two of The New Vision where a list of numbers will be published.
A reader circles the numbers on a horizontal line that corresponds with those on the advertisement on page two. One becomes a winner when all the numbers on a horizontal Cashline are circled.
The tokens on the advertisements should be placed at the back of the game card.
Cards with 28 coupons will be eligible for the grand draw on June 10 in which the unclaimed prizes will be won.
