Overview The Daily Lotto is a fairly new lottery in South Africa which saw its first draw on Sunday, March 10, 2019. The lotto was introduced by South Africa’s National Lottery operator, Ithuba and it can be described as a unique game amidst the choice of games that the operator offers. The jackpot is set to be won in every draw and there are four different ways in which players can win prizes. How it works To play the Daily Lotto, players must select five numbers ranging from 1 to 36. Draws take place daily at 21h00 South Africa Standard Time (SAST) and tickets must be purchased before the cut-off time at 20h30. It costs players R3.00 per play and players can enter up to ten consecutive draws in advance. Players can purchase their tickets either in-store or online. In-store Players can obtain a betslip from any store which offers lottery games. Players can then choose their five numbers between 1 and 36, or select the option for a quick pick, in which the machine randomly selects the numbers. Players can then decide how many boards they want to play followed by how many consecutive draws they wish to enter, up to a maximum of ten. Players can leave it blank should they only want to enter a single draw. Lastly, players can take their betslip to the teller, pay for their ticket, and wait for the draw to take place. In addition, players must remember to enter their details on the back of their ticket should they need to claim a prize and ensure that they sign their ticket and keep it safe.

They can select the Daily Lotto from the website and choose five numbers from 1 to 36 or select the quick pick option to generate a random set. This can be repeated on multiple boards and players can select whether they want to enter a single draw or multiple draws, up to a maximum of ten. After having selected the numbers, the player can confirm their ticket and the payment will be subtracted from the balance in their account with the provider. Should players have won a prize, they will be contacted through the contact method and details that they provided. One advantage with playing online is that players do not have to worry about losing their ticket or their ticket being stolen, and the prize claimed by another person. Numbers chosen are saved to the player’s online lottery account. In addition, players do not have to wait to view the results of the draw and they will be notified should they have won a prize. Prize claiming is also a lot more convenient with an online lottery ticket purchase and prizes are paid to the player directly. Read more: Chitungwiza woman wins $131 000 Africa Lotto jackpot

A 29-YEAR-OLD Chivhu woman yesterday slit her four children’s throats before setting the family house on fire following a dispute with her husband over infidelity. BY MIRIAM MANGWAYA Emelda Marazani also reportedly attempted to commit suicide by taking poison after killing her daughters aged nine, five, three and one. Police sources claimed that Marazani, who was pregnant, had a stillbirth while in hospital where she was being treated, but personnel at the hospital said the pregnancy was intact. She handed herself to the police after committing the crime, but was admitted at Chivhu General Hospital, where she was put under police guard. Chivhu Hospital medical superintendent Alice Kanyemba said Marazani was in a stable condition. “She is at an advanced stage of pregnancy, but for now, no signs of complications have shown,” she said. It is reported that Marazani and her husband Lameck Brande had a dispute at the weekend after she saw a message from his alleged girlfriend, a Form 4 pupil at local school. Following the dispute, on Monday they went to Chirumanzi to seek advice from Marazani’s relatives and returned to Chivhu. Yesterday, Brande went to work, but Marazani, who was employed as a shop assistant in Chivhu, did not go to work and instead bought an unknown pesticide. When she returned home, she locked her four children in one room, tied the two older ones together and cut their throats with a kitchen knife. She then turned on the smaller ones and killed them too. Neighbours rushed to the scene after seeing smoke coming from the house and met Marazani who told them it was just a minor fire which she had already extinguished. She then left her house in haste, according to witnesses. “I quickly sent messages to various local WhatsApp groups when I saw smoke from the house, attempting to notify the house owners that their house was on fire, only to discover few minutes later the owner was actually there,” a witness, who preferred anonymity, said. Neighbours managed to retrieve the bodies of two younger girls, but the other two who were tied together were burnt beyond recognition. The house and the property were also destroyed by the fire. Police confirmed the incident. “The suspect, Emelda Marazani (29), had a marital dispute with her husband, Lameck Brande (43) and when the husband left for work in the morning, the suspect locked the children aged nine, five, three and one in the house. She took a rope and tied the other two elder children before slitting open their throats with a knife. The suspect went on to kill the other two children with the knife before setting the house on fire,” Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi said in a statement last night. He said Marazani then drank poison which she had earlier bought before going out. “Neighbours saw some smoke and asked her what was happening. She said all was in order before she handed herself over to the police.”

Econet has partnered with Alphabet, Google’s parent company to provide new high speed broadband technology which uses beams instead of fibre, Alphabet’s subsidiary, X “Moonshot Factory” said on Tuesday. BY PRIMROSE HAISA “Our ‘Project Taara’ high-speed optical wireless broadband endeavour is working with internet provider Econet and its subsidiaries to begin rolling out its tech across Sub-Saharan Africa,” X said in a statement. “This deployment follows a series of small pilots in Kenya specifically, but now Taara and Econet are ready to start adding high-speed wireless optical links to supplement and enhance Econet service reach more broadly, starting with Liquid Telecom customers in Kenya.” X added: “Taara is yet another approach to extending the reach of broadband networks to parts of the Earth that have typically not had access or high-speed connections, due primarily to infrastructure challenges.” According to X, in a substitute of digging about two weeks to lay fibre cables, the new technology will be organized to connect two points 20 km apart and it currently delivers up to 10 Gbits of internet capacity. X’s Taara is essentially a fibre optic network cable without the cable which uses a narrow, invisible beam of light to transmit data between two terminals that can span up to nearly 12.5 miles, while providing transfer speeds of up to 20 Gbps. This, X said, means thousands of customers or households can be connected while still providing speeds high enough for streaming high-quality video. “Taara’s technology can essentially be used to patch gaps in traditional fibre optic networks, spanning rivers or crossing terrain that would be hard or impossible to span using either under or aboveground cable.” X has been piloting Taara in a number of deployments around the world and is moving towards commercialising the project.
