WhatsApp has announced new parental controls for teens, which means somewhere in Mzansi a 15-year-old is about to discover that Mom can now peek behind the digital curtain. Cue the dramatic sighs, the eye rolls and some very quiet group chats. Parents, meanwhile, are feeling rather smug. If you fancy a win of your own, the Lotto (R17 million), Lotto Plus 1 (R4.5 million) and Lotto 5 Max (R5 million) jackpots add up to a tidy R26.5 million.
Numbers updated here after the draw. Lotto, Lotto Plus 1 and Lotto 5 Max draw every Wednesday and Saturday at 21:00 SAST.
