Someone in KZN just won R128 million…
A lucky KwaZulu-Natal player has won the R128.6 million PowerBall jackpot. Check the winning numbers here.
The newly appointed operators of South Africa’s National Lottery, Sizekhaya, have confirmed that Tuesday night’s eye-watering PowerBall jackpot winner bought their ticket right here in KwaZulu-Natal.
That’s right. One lucky person in our province is now a staggering R128,593,394.50 richer.
And the craziest part is they may not even know it yet.

For those furiously opening their lottery apps, the winning numbers were:
2, 10, 22, 28, 49
PowerBall: 7
If those numbers look familiar, now would be a great time to stop reading and check your ticket.
We’ll wait...
Sizekhaya has confirmed that the winning ticket was purchased at a retail store somewhere in KwaZulu-Natal, but they’re keeping the exact location under wraps for now.
That means the winner could be from Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Richards Bay, Newcastle, Ballito, Kokstad, Port Shepstone, or anywhere in between.
In fact, they could be standing next to you in the queue buying bread and milk right now.
Although if they know they’ve won R128 million, they’re probably not worried about the price of milk anymore.
What would you do with R128 million?
Let’s be honest. We’ve all played this game before.
Would you:
- Quit your job immediately?
- Buy a beach house on the North Coast?
- Travel the world?
- Pay off your family’s debt?
- Start your dream business?
At R128 million, you could probably do all of the above and still have enough left over to make your accountant nervous.

Don’t throw away your tickets
One of the most surprising things about lottery jackpots is how often winners don’t claim them immediately.
Tickets get forgotten in wallets. They get left in cars. They end up in drawers. Sometimes they even get accidentally thrown away.
So before you dismiss the possibility, maybe keep your lucky lotto tickets in that one drawer of random stuff.
