Education as a means to success

Education is a crucial aspect of anyone's life, especially in South Africa. Social mobility in the country is tough to come by as there are few opportunities for gainful employment, especially for the youth. Furthermore, the country has one of the highest rates of unemployment in the world.

According to the Department of Higher Education and Training, around 7% of South Africans hold a degree, which isn't exactly high. Education remains elusive for many looking to improve their lives in the country, so it's quite the event and sight to see when people can graduate from such institutions.

South Africans applauded the jovial sight and had nothing but positivity to share with the graduates.
