Transferre­d

It will take me three years to finish this course,´ 0atsebula said. Eswatini 1ational Council of Arts and Culture (E1CAC) Chief Execu tive Officer (CEO) Stanley Dlamini said :orkers College proved to be the right partner for the pageant by giving the young ladies such an opportunit­y. ³Our partners and sponsors are usually told prior that such can happen where one of the girls might win a scholarshi­p, yet they are already enrolled somewhere. :ith this scholarshi­p, :orkers College really came through for us and we would like to appreciate them for giving the girls the opportunit­y. :e are really grateful to them, the partnershi­p has been there for the past three years and the goal is that everyone involved must have value in helping our children,´ Dlamini said.
