UK taxi driver wins £25 million Lotto jackpot
ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT ONLINE):A UK taxi driver Amo Riselli, got confirmation from Lotto bosses that he scooped £24,501,283 jackpot after matching five main numbers and the bonus ball in the must-be-won draw last Wednesday.
According to the Mirror, though the new multi-millionaire did not have all six numbers to match yet he was declared the winner, as the jackpot rolled down to those who had matched five numbers and the bonus ball. The main numbers were 18, 36, 48, 57, 58, 59 and the bonus ball was 50.
Huge celebrations broke out within the family as soon he shared the news with his five daughters, mother, his four brothers and sisters.
As it was a busy time over the festive period, Mr Riselli still had a few regular taxi runs to do before he decided to hang up his car keys for good and retire.
“I will miss all my friends at work as we really have a laugh together, but I’ve decided I’m going to retire – just because now I can,” he said.Y JACKPOT WINNERS
After treating family and friends, Mr Riselli is planning on moving house. He wants a four bedroom home with a swimming pool but still in the Gloucester area, where he has lived all of his life.
He is also going to celebrate by arranging a big get together as a thank you for all his colleagues from the Grosvenor taxi rank, where he was self-employed for 12 years.
