Updated | By Gcinokuhle Malinga
A KwaZulu-Natal flood survivor has become a multi-millionaire.
He won the lotto jackpot prize valued at R44 million.
The father of seven, who claimed his winnings this week, said he bought his golden ticket via the Standard Bank app on the 12th of July.
ITHUBA, the national lottery's official operator, said this was not his first major lotto win.
A few years ago, the KZN dad bagged R340 0000.
The sole breadwinner wants to give his family a stable and secure home and his children and extended family quality education.
The 54-year-old, who's had humble beginnings, says they have experienced two flood disasters in the province.
