Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported it's said lighting never strikes the same place twice, at least not unless you're one very lucky Mzansi man.
A 57-year old geologist who betted twice on the same numbers in the Lotto Plus has walked away with a double jackpot. The anonymous man won a total of R803 434.20 in the April 14 draw.
It's reported the winner used a banking app to play and opted for the manual selection of his lucky winning numbers. “Using numbers that he had randomly selected the lucky player betted on the same numbers twice and bagged the full Lotto Plus 1 jackpot amount,” said Charmaine Mabuza, iThuba’s CEO.
In a statement, the winner said:
“I was extremely happy to learn that I had won the Lotto jackpot, I will use this money to pay off all my debts. I’m currently building a house for my wife and me. A small portion of my winnings will go towards the completion and furnishing of the house."
“I plan on investing the balance of my winnings to have savings available for a rainy day.”
Mzansi social media users were sure to share their thoughts on the unlikely turn of events. Read some of their comments below:

"The SIU should do a thorough investigation on South African Lottery. There's definitely something fishy going on."
@WatuJayP
"I planned and betted twice previously on the same numbers. If it's fraud the system should have been designed to kick off such tickets."
