Sometimes in life if you need something to be done you just have to do it yourself. Parents of the children at Jumba Senior Secondary School in Mthatha recently did this after taking the initiative to build additional classrooms at the school for their kids.
Heading online, a man with the Twitter handle, @ghettostyler recently shared a picture of builders working on the classrooms. In the caption, he explained that the parents of the children who would be using the classrooms decided to build it for them.
"PARENTS from Jumba Senior Secondary School in Mthatha have taken a decision to build two classrooms, to assist their children with their learning, while they wait for the Eastern Cape Department of Education to assist them.
"The school governing body (SGB) treasurer, Nobomi Sifundo, confirmed that they were using donations from the parents to build these classrooms. This school is one of the schools that were damaged by a tornado last year," he wrote.
Soon locals were sharing their thoughts:
@KhutsoRebel said:
"South Africans are not politically literate, if those parents voted right they wouldn't have to waste their money and time. There are people getting paid monthly to do that job."
@Mabea01 said:
"ANC is doing exactly what the past regime was doing, most of the schools that the gov claims to be gov schools were built by parents, I went to primary & high school which my parents contributed for them be built, it's sad to see this in 2021."
In other inspiring Briefly.co.za news, a local landlord with the Twitter handle, @felebah2991 recently headed to Twitter to share how he had just evicted one of his tenants from his property after the tenant failed to pay their rent on time.
His post also includes a photo of the tenant's belongings which he has presumably decided to pack up and out of the property that the tenant was living in without the tenant's consent or permission.
South Africans were far from impressed by the post. Many of them headed to the comment section to share their thoughts, a lot of them even generously offered to help pay the poor tenant's rent.
