Cash, Cornhole and Legal Luck: A Riveting Start to Winna Mariba

The highly anticipated premiere of Trustco’s Winna Mariba game show, powered by NBC delivered an exhilarating evening of entertainment and suspense. The debut episode, which aired last night on NBC2, captivated viewers as four contestants – Martie McKay, Julia Nghishilenapo, Johannes Naujoma and Mariana Isai – showcased their skills and determination in the challenging Wire Game during round one.

Hosts Neville and Mia warmly welcomed the contestants as they took the stage, setting the tone for an evening of fierce yet friendly competition. The Wire Game allowed each participant to contribute a maximum of N$1000 to the growing prize pot, with Marianna being the first to exit after contributing the least amount. The remaining three contestants then moved on to the featured game of the evening, the intense “Cornhole” game.

In a gripping battle, Martie, Julia and Johannes vied for a coveted spot in the “Grab the Cash” final round. The tension reached a fever pitch, culminating in Martie and Johannes emerging as the two finalists for round three. This thrilling face-off determined the ultimate winner of the night and the total prize pot of N$7,600.

In a surprising twist, Martie clinched victory, seizing the majority of the cash in ‘Grab the Cash’ and walking away with the entire prize pot of N$7,600! However, the excitement didn’t end there. Martie’s longstanding commitment as a Legal Shield member since 2001 became the ultimate game-changer. Her winnings were doubled to an astonishing N$15,200, adding a further layer of excitement to an already remarkable win. Martie currently works for a telecommunications company and looks forward to using her winnings for enhancement projects in and around her home. She expressed her thanks by saying: “I’m blessed and thanks to Winna Mariba for the great opportunity. It was a lot of fun.” Her vibrant personality and eager participation contributed to a terrific first episode, leading her to ultimately walking away with the prize pot. Congratulations to Martie from Winna Mariba, Trustco and the NBC!

The premiere episode has set the stage for a spectacular season ahead, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating what’s to come. The buzz is already building for episode two, scheduled for next Wednesday at 19:30. For those who missed the action, a rebroadcast of this thrilling episode will air on Sunday at 19:00, exclusively on NBC2 and will be shared on Winna Mariba’s official You Tube page the following Monday.  Trustco’s Winna Mariba powered by NBC promises to deliver more excitement, challenges and unexpected twists!
