'a Prayer Answered' - R102m Powerball Winner Claims Jackpot

The winner of the R102 million Powerball jackpot has claimed his prize after purchasing his ticket via the FNB banking app for R100.

The winner, a regular National Lottery participant, visited Ithubas Mpumalanga offices to collect his winnings.

He expressed his disbelief and joy, saying it still feels like a dream.

The winner, who had previously won R70 000, shared that he had prayed for R15 million to support his business dreams, and winning R102 million exceeded his expectations.

Winning R102 million is far beyond my expectations. It feels like a prayer answered many times over, IOL quoted him as saying.
