Electronic gaming and entertainment firm, Western Lotto Nigeria Limited, has raised the stakes in Nigeria industry with the introduction of Powerball Max, one of its latest franchise, reports ITRealms.
Powerball Max, a US lottery, offers winnings of up to N14b ($26,000,000.00). Western Lotto Nigeria Limited is the official partner of the lottery.
Powerball is the wealthiest lottery in the world, offering an N562billion jackpot. Draws take place every Wednesday and Saturday in the US or Thursday and Sunday Nigerian time.
The Managing Director of Western Lotto Nigeria Limited, Mr Yomi Ogunfowora, said the gamers on the platform could tap into the nine ways through which to win prizes.
He explained that jackpots never fall below N14billion at any given time, just as winners share from a large pot.
