The 21 year old gave birth to a bouncing baby girl a day later at the Kilifi district hospital.
Speaking while receiving the cheque at the maternity ward in Kilifi district hospital, Jelimo said that the money will support her to settle the hospital bill, pay her school fees and raise Mishi, her new born daughter.
“This to me is a blessing; prior to my winning I had challenges with settling the hospital bill, paying my school fees in addition to upkeep for me and the baby given that I have no job nor any other source of income,” said Jelimo

Customers will earn minimum two points for top ups between Sh20-49 and a maximum 100 points for top ups upwards of Sh1, 000. Subscribers will get entries for every top up done via M-PESA or scratch card.
