mega win

Mark Forde is Barbados’ newest millionaire after winning $1,840,000 in the Barbados Lottery’s Mega 6 jackpot.

The welder/engineer who would only say he’s in his 40s, said he intends to invest his winnings wisely.

Mr. Forde says he is an occasional player, and intends to keep playing.

When asked about his reaction, he says it was his mom Isylma Forde who had the reaction on hearing of his win.
