South Africa: ‘Not only is service delivery important to the community; education is equally vital to our children as part of service delivery.’
This was the message from the Mayor, Cllr Sindisiwe Msomi, during a visit by the municipal external bursary beneficiaries at the municipal offices in Creighton today.
The beneficiaries of the municipal external bursary who visited our offices & were accompanied by their parents are Catlin Huxmin from Himeville, who is currently doing her third year in Psychology & Communication Sciences.
Neliswa Nzimande from Emacabazini, who is doing his second year in Bachelor of Law, and Mlungisi Sikhosana from Endodeni, who is currently doing his first year in Bachelor of Accounting.
They are grateful for the support and contribution from the Municipality, and they vow to do their best to succeed in their individual studies in order to come back to impart their knowledge and skills within the community of Dr Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma Municipality.
“As the Municipality, we recognize the challenge that our communities face when the demand for skills can’t be met, and unemployment persists because individuals don’t have the skills required by employers. We have made a commitment to contribute towards closing this gap and help build a growing economy through the required skills within our Municipality. We have the mandate to ensure that this Municipality continues to shine the light of hope and transforms the lives of our community members,” said the Mayor.
They also urge the public to Work together to build better communities.
