The man who wanted to be known as "Mr. M" said he could not believe it at first and that no one knows he won R60-million. The only people who are aware of his winnings are the National Lottery, the bank, and his banker.
Eights months later, an unemployed mother won the biggest jackpot of the year, R158-million!According to the National Lottery, they “can confirm the biggest jackpot thus far for 2021 has been won with the Powerball jackpot of over a whopping R158 million. This means the lucky winner walks away with the second highest Powerball jackpot in the history of the South African National Lottery, making them not only the biggest jackpot winner of 2021 but the biggest online jackpot winner.”
