NGAMO VOCATIONAL COLLEGE & LIVESTOCK FARM

Lindokuhle Pink Thebe

Age 17 | Ngamo Line, Ward 3, Tsholotsho

Asked where she sees herself in the future, Lindokuhle's answer is simple: a farmer.

She lives with her parents in Ngamo, along Ngamo line in Ward 3, where the family relies on selling vegetables for income, and low financial income has been a constant challenge.

She came to Ngamo straight after her O Level exams, wanting to gain more knowledge in agricultural production. Wildlife Management is her main coursework interest, though poultry production and caring for livestock are what she says she is genuinely best at.

Wanting to become a better person and improve her family's life motivates her, and when things are difficult, she says it is simply thinking about the situation at home that keeps her going. Her plan is to have her own farm and practice poultry production, providing her family with fresh produce straight from what she grows and raises.

“I want to be a better person and improve my family's life.”

Previously at Ngamo Secondary School. Lindokuhle is now part of the training programme at Ngamo Vocational College and Livestock Farm.
