ITHUBA Uganda, the official operator of the Uganda National Lottery, has announced the winners of the country’s largest LOTTO jackpot payout in history. Just nine weeks after ticket sales went live on June 1, 2024, 11 lucky players have won a share of the over Shs1 billion guaranteed jackpot. The winning numbers are 8, 31, 35, 42, 46, 47, and bonus number 6.
