Written by Hendrik RautenbachA Cape Town man who makes a living as a street vendor, had his prayers answered when he became the latest multi-millionaire after winning Saturday’s (03 September) estimated LOTTO jackpot of over R86 million.
The man came forward to claim his winnings, after realising on Sunday that he had won from a ticket he bought at Shoprite in Durbanville, and played via the manual selection.
“The first think we did when I realised I had won, we prayed and thanked the Lord, only my wife and children know that we have won,” said the player.
“I play the Lottery games twice a month, and I mix my numbers each time I play, this time around I specifically played LOTTO and not the other games, as I went with my gut feeling.
“I have never won this much money before, the most I won from a game was R450.
“All my life I have always dreamt of winning a big jackpot, and now I can build a house from my family,” added the winner.
In his spare time, he gives motivational talks at schools. When asked about what is the one thing he will start doing now, that he couldn’t do before, he responded to say that “I can now start to relax.”
“ITHUBA congratulates the latest multi – millionaire, it is encouraging to see players who still have hope and play our National Lottery games. It is even more significant when they win our jackpots and have their dreams come true,” – Charmaine Mabuza, ITHUBA CEO.

On 21 December, the National Lottery Operator reported that 2 LOTTO jackpot winners had not come forward to claim their prizes. The R8,7 million LOTTO jackpot winner has since come forward to claim his prize.
The middle-aged man from Soweto arrived at the ITHUBA office in Sandton in the company of his male neighbor, whom he says he trusts completely. The winner admitted that he had already told various members of his family about his windfall. The unmarried father of 3 said that he had lost count of how many years he has been unemployed. He stays with his mother in a family home in Soweto, and said that one of the first things he wants to do with his money is to buy a house and build a better home for his children. “Winning this LOTTO jackpot has indeed uplifted my dignity. I have lost count of how many years I have been without a job. When I stopped working years ago, I used whatever money I had saved to start a loan business in the township as means of survival. Every month I lend people money and they return it with interest. It is with this money that I had been able to take care of my family and send my children to school.”
When asked about why it took him long to come forward to claim his winnings, he replied: “I didn’t realise that I had the winning ticket. I heard that there was a winner from Soweto – but Soweto is massive, I did not think it could be me. I checked my ticket at the retail store where I shop and I was shocked to learn that I had won the jackpot. Although I play the lottery very often, I was merely just hoping for a few hundreds of thousands, winning millions is a blessing. I am also a regular SportStake 13 player and have won a few thousands from the game. I actually thought my winnings would come from SportStake”, he said.
After receiving financial advice arranged and paid for by the National Lottery Operator the winner said: “Following the financial advice I have received, I plan to buy a house, start a formalised business and invest a significant amount of my winnings so that I never have to worry about money again.”

A 68 year old pensioner from Pretoria scooped the R4,9 million LOTTO PLUS 2 jackpot from the 3rd November 2018 draw.
The pensioner visited the Ithuba office in Sandton on Friday the 7th of November in the company of his wife and two children. The family all stay in an RDP house in Pretoria which they have not been able to extend or renovate in any way. Apart from the winner’s pension grant, the family also survives on the son’s income from his job as a taxi driver.
When asked about how he was planning on spending his new fortune, the winner said: “First of all, I want to help my children improve their lives and be independent. They want to start their own businesses and want start-up homes, I will help them achieve that. My daughter also wants to further her studies and that makes me happy. As for me and my wife, we will not move out of our RDP house, we will just renovate it into a beautiful, well-furnished home. I will finally be able to buy a big plasma TV and a stunning lounge suite where my wife and I can relax peacefully. I really cannot wait for our lives to get better, I feel like my dignity as the head of the family has been restored”, said the winner.
The winner received trauma counselling and extensive financial advice organised by ITHUBA. “The financial advice really helped me realise that if I use these winnings wisely, I will never be poor again in my life. I intend on sticking to the financial counsel I received — just the terrifying thought of going back to poverty on its own, will keep me motivated”, he concluded.
