Yes, i did it!!!!! Lebo on the cloud nine after winning a one million rand cheque from Yebo Millionaires
Just 6 days before turning 24, Lebo received a suprise one million cheque from Vodacom Yebo Millionaires and he is confused on how he will spend his million.
Lebo shall be celebrating his birthday on Tuesday and he is South Africa‘s latest millionaire who hails from a village in the Limpopo province.
He simply smsed 9 letters to 32082 and won a million and the longstanding Vodacom customer was shocked when he received the news.
”
It's mine: Lebo with a million dollar smile
I couldn’d believe that I had won so much money and I immediately wanted to share the good news with my parents,”said Lebo.
This is not the first time that Lebo has won with Yebo Millionaires, the jubilant 23 year old won some airtime just a short time ago.
”I thought that I might with more airtime, not a million rand and I would like to thank Vodacom Yebo Millionaires’ for giving me this life changing win and I would also like to thank my parents for looking after me since I still live with them” he emphasised.
Lebo plans to use his winning to renovate the family home, where he lives with his parents and his brother, and further his education.
”I want to go back to school and complete my matric, then I will use some of the money to pay for my studies to become an electrical engineer and my father has been the bread winner in the family for many years, but now I can help to provide for the family” Lebo said.
Other than the hard work that lies ahead in building a career, Lebo will also have some time, and the funds for his favourite pastime watching Jean-Claude Van Damme movies with his friend and supporting his favourite soccer team, Kaizer Chiefs.
Joe Dlamini from Limpopo region also said the prise couldn’t have gone to a better winner and Lebo celebrates his birthday on 27 July and they are delighted to present him with a million rand gift
