The lucky Ladysmith Lotto winner of R14,111,886 is still unknown.
The winner purchased a PowerBall Plus at a mere R15 from Veez Planet, which is located in the Rose Park area of Ladysmith. Speaking to shop owner Geetha Mangroo, she says, “I am very happy that one of my customers won the R14 million.”
Geetha was contacted yesterday morning (January 25) by the National Lottery to tell her that the winning Lotto ticket was from her shop.
Many Lotto players visit her shop on a daily basis from all around Ladysmith, so she cannot say who the winner is… Nevertheless, Geetha has received many calls and had many customers walking in to find out who the new multi-millionaire is.
In the past, the shop has had winners of small amounts, and perhaps many they still don’t know about. According to Geetha, this is the very first time anyone has won millions from a ticket purchased at her shop.
Geetha congratulates the winner and hopes there are many more to come from tickets bought at Veez Planet.
There is definitely a buzz around town after the R14 million win, with all and sundry keen to know who walked away with the cold, hard cash.
