Bernadetta Azucena, a Filipina living in Ajman, won Dh20 million in the latest Big Ticket draw. Ms Azucena, 42, had recently resigned from her job as a secretary and was preparing for surgery in the Philippines. She shared with her mother her life-changing news, expressing gratitude and relief. The Azucenas, including their 15-year-old daughter in Grade 10, plan to use the winnings to become debt-free, pay for their house and car loans, and secure their daughter's future.
The couple, who have been playing Big Ticket since 2017, had a system where each member took turns choosing tickets under their name. This time, the winning ticket was under Ms Azucena's name. The win occurred while the couple was away from the UAE after Ms Azucena twisted her arm in an accident, making it difficult for her to work.
They decided she should return home for treatment, but the win has shifted their immediate plans. Despite the unexpected fortune, the Azucenas plan to continue participating in Big Ticket.
