A person from East London won the massive R81,942,756 on the PowerBall PLUS jackpot on Tuesday. The winning ticket was bought in East London with a ticket wager of R15, and the player selected the winning numbers manually.

“The year 2020 has been a year of disruptions which put financial strain on a lot of people. A jackpot of this size will make a difference in anyone’s life, but we truly hope that this money has been won by someone who really needs it”, said ITHUBA spokesperson, Busisiwe Msizi.

This is the second biggest PowerBall PLUS jackpot won in 2020, following the R153 Million won by a KZN player who played via the Standard Bank App.
