Miss SA graduates with another Degree
Johannesburg, South Africa
Shudufhadzo Musida the current Miss South Africa’s success story keeps on reeling as she is now a holder of a B.A Honours in International Relations from the University of the Witwatersrand.
Taking to Twitter the Limpopo born took it upon herself to share the good news, “marks are out am officially an Honours graduate now.”
Moreover, the 24-year-old who is also a holder of a Bachelor of Social Sciences in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Pretoria has since said the country needs to develop an army of empowered women and she hopes to be a representative of the beauty, resilience, and diversity that she says exists in this country.
Despite being academically sound she also has a keen interest in the wellbeing of people as she has come out on numerous occasions commenting on the issues of mental health.
“For me mental health is something that is not really spoken about, it’s considered a taboo conversation that is often engaged with shame, so by actually bringing that conversation forward it’s saying, listen it’s time, society needs help, society needs to actually stand together to confront this, to tackle this and move forward because if the mind is conquered we will go nowhere.
Moreso, we often engage in it, but not to rehabilitate in our society, but rather to shame and I believe that now it is time for that to change and it starts with us as representatives of people in the public platform to bring about change,” said the current Miss S.A.
Moreover, she is also a strong advocate for the empowerment of the girl child,
“it is such a huge responsibility to be a role model to so many girl children around the country, not just in Limpopo, especially in rural areas. To know that ndi va ha-Vhangani, ndo dzena ha-Vhangani and by some grace, not even by some grace, by God’s grace and through hard work and determination, I managed to make it.
Moreso, it’s not just about the beauty, but it’s about the brains. In order to change and empower so many people, I believe that once you empower a young girl, you empower many nations.”
