A heart for service
Talk of the Town welcomes Khanyisa Daweti back to the team, as an advertising sales representative. Faith Qinga asked her to share a little about herself.
I was born on one of the Southwell farms and was raised in Port Alfred. I did my schooling at Port Alfred High School and matriculated in 2009. I, thereafter, went on to study towards a marketing qualification at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University. In 2014, I was elected to serve as a PR Councillor for the Democratic Alliance in Ndlambe. I served in the position for six years until the Local Government Elections in November 2021. Since then, I have pursued my other aspirations in Makhanda and Port Alfred.

For me, it is to provide exceptional service to our community.
What are your long-term career goals?
Gaining experience and learning as much as I can in this role.
What do you love about Port Alfred?
Besides the sea, I genuinely love the people of Port Alfred and our sense of community.
