Ithuba, the operator of the South African National Lottery, has confirmed that a winner has claimed the R100 million jackpot from the August 3 draw, marking it as the second largest in the game's history. The winning ticket was purchased at a Pick n Pay store in Hazeldean Square, Pretoria. After nearly three weeks of anticipation and public appeals to locate the winner, she has chosen to remain anonymous but expressed immense gratitude for her life-changing win. Ithuba CEO Charmaine Mabuza celebrated the significance of the win, especially during Women’s Month, and emphasized the positive impact of the National Lottery on communities. Additionally, a couple from KwaZulu-Natal won R16,749,487.40 in the Powerball Plus draw, planning to secure medical aid for the first time. This recent surge in lottery wins highlights the excitement and opportunities provided by the lottery in South Africa.
