Windhoek-After 17 weeks of draws, 700 WB customers were drawn as semi-finalists for the grand prize of N$246,000 cash. Over these 17 weeks 697 customers also won N$1,230 each in weekly draws, totalling more than N$850,000.

Massive prizes have become synonymous with the group since Nazeema Brenner and Celine Usiku each won N$1m cash in 2015 and 2016 respectively. A brand-new Toyota Landcruiser also went the way of Lozenzo Gawaseb in July this year.
