This proved to be an excellent strategy for the young mother, since it landed her a win of R66,175,535.10.

Ithuba, which operates South Africa’s National Lottery, said that the winner, understandably, “couldn’t contain her joy” with hitting her lottery. Like many South African’s this has always been a dream of hers. She also spoke of “an indescribable feeling”.
