Earlier this month, a Rustenburg resident claimed her R5.2 million winnings from an R40 wager.
The winner told Ithuba she never changed her numbers for all her Lottery games.
“When I saw that I had won, I froze in shock. I couldn’t believe that my persistence and faith finally paid off,” she said.
“I am an avid churchgoer, and as part of my way of giving back to the community, I will be donating some of my winnings to my church. I’m grateful for this opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those around me.”
