Pakistani auditor in UAE wins Dh15 million in Emirates Draw EASY6

Dubai: A Pakistani expat in the UAE, born and raised in the capital Abu Dhabi, has won Dh15 million as the EASY6 Grand Prize in Emirates Draw.

Mohammad Inam is a senior internal audit manager who says his ties to the UAE were established even before he was born. His father first arrived in the country in the 1970s, laying the foundation for future generations. Inam discovered Emirates Draw social media in 2021 and has been playing consistently since, favouring FAST5 and EASY6 games.

On December 15, he became an overnight millionaire with the EASY6 Grand Prize. Inam initially thought the congratulatory phone call was a prank. Confirmation came through email and a published announcement featuring the exact winning numbers he had randomly selected.

“I didn’t watch the live shows, or check the app, so I had no idea I had won until I received the phone call, which I initially thought was a prank. After checking multiple times, I finally told my wife, who didn’t even know I had been playing Emirates Draw all this time. She was completely shocked and only believed me when I showed her the episode replay and my matching numbers on the app,” he said.

Plans after win

“I‘m a strong believer in destiny and with this win all my prayers have been answered... The first thing I plan to do is perform Hajj [pilgrimage to Islamic holy sites in Makkah] with my family.”

Considering the UAE his home, Inam intends to invest in a property, securing a permanent residence.

Expressing joy for Inam’s win, Paul Chader, Head of Commercial, Emirates Draw, said: “Congratulations to Mohammad. Emirates Draw goes beyond mere numbers and winners. Our focus remains on creating a meaningful difference in people’s lives. The entire team is excited about this win, coincidentally occurring at the same time as last year’s first Grand Prize winner, Ajay Ogula. Confidence is high that this win will bring positive transformations not only to his life but also to those around him.”
