"First and foremost a lot of thanks goes to my Heavenly Father for blessing me with the talent and knowledge to not only graduate but continue to further my studies. I could not have done this without Him. Big thanks to my parents and especially my friends who were with me all the way throughout the journey and continue to be with this new chapter in life.
"Cheers to 2021 being a year of new beginnings and lots of blessings- Tina Makombe. MEng Candidate (Transportation Engineering) || Civil Engineering Graduate," the post reads.

"Well done lady. Congratulations."

We also reported that a young man, Sihle Makhanya, shared with Varsity World how happy he is to have admitted as an attorney of the High Court. In his post, he also makes a really funny comment about how nervous he was to appear in front of the magistrate for the very first time.
"It seems like it was just yesterday that I told the Magistrate how nervous I was ahead of my first court appearance as a Candidate Attorney when I went to go introduce myself to her in chambers (pre-COVID) and now as I live breathe I can confidently say it with my chest that I am an Attorney of the High Court of South Africa." - Sihle Makhanya Attorney at Venns Attorneys," the post reads.
Mzansi loves a good success story and naturally reacted to the post hundreds of times. Many of them also headed to the comment section to offer Sihle the congratulatory messages that he deserves.
