A Winnipeg man is $1 million richer this week.
Sipho Simani checked the numbers of his LOTTO 6/49 ticket, as he had done for years, after winning numbers were announced.
To his surprise, he won the big prize.
“For some reason, I’ve always had a feeling that I would win someday; and now I have,” Simani said in a press release.
The winner purchased his ticket from a local grocery store in Winnipeg on May 3.
He said he plans to use the money to buy investment properties.
