The PowerBall jackpot rolled to an estimated R128 Million on 17 October 2023, creating not one but two lucky winners who shared the jackpot, each walking away with over R64 Million.

Both winning tickets were purchased online through banking platforms. This life-changing ticket was purchased via the FNB platform.

Additionally, a significant portion of his winnings will be astutely invested, ensuring a secure future for him and his family.

The overjoyed winner reflected on his win, “I've always felt deep down that I would win one day. It's a sentiment my father, also a passionate National Lottery player, used to express often. He'd always say that our day of winning big would come. Today, his words have turned into a reality.”

Charmaine Mabuza, the CEO of ITHUBA, sharing in the winner’s joy, remarked, “It is moments like these that reaffirm the power of hope and persistence. To hear about players who have been loyal and hopeful and then to see their dreams actualise is incredibly heartwarming.
