A UAE citizen on Tuesday bagged Dh20 million in the coveted Big Ticket draw.

In a live stream of the draw held in Abu Dhabi, the host announced that the holder of ticket number 337126, Mubarak Gharib Rashed Salem AlDhaheri, would take home the grand prize.

When making the announcement, the host Richard, said that this was the "first time in a long time" that a UAE national had won the jackpot prize. The Al Ain resident received a call from both Bushra and Richard with the good news - when the latter slipped up and nearly told him he won Dh25 million.

The winner, who has been purchasing tickets for two years, said he buys his tickets at the airport. While speaking to the hosts, he said he wishes to donate a part of his winnings, buy things for himself and even plans to purchase a house.

Last month, Thajudeen Kunju, a resident of Trivandrum, India, became a millionaire after winning the grand prize of Dh25 million in the Big Ticket Series 274 draw.
