Mbatha makes Vaal proud

VANDERBIJLPARK. – The Vaal has yet again something to smile about and be proud of as 20-year-old Snethemba Mbatha (20) from Sebokeng is in the running to become Miss South Africa (SA) 2016.
Mbatha has in the past few weeks gained a lot of support from Vaal resident’s who believe that she has a good chance of making it to the top.
Mbatha is a second-year student at Boston Media House studying Public Relations and Radio.
“I entered the competition because I want to be a role model to young girls. I want to bring change to my community and to SA as whole.”Mbatha adds that she hopes her giant leap in entering the competition will show young girls that dreams do come true, no matter what kind of background one may come from. Mbatha’s main inspiration for entering is her late mom who always encouraged her to enter the competition.
“My dream beyond this competition is to graduate, gain experience and then start my own company. I want to create job opportunities because there are so many graduates who are unemployed.
“I also want to start a campaign for girls, whether I win this competition or not.”
This experience will also groom me to be a better, stronger young woman who strives to bring change to the world.
Mbatha’s message to the youth is, “Put God first. Follow your dreams. Get an education because that is the key to success.”
