Media personality Anele Mdoda has praised her father Patillizwe ‘Pat’ Mdoda for building a school in an Eastern Cape village.
Mdoda went viral over the weekend when she shared that her father is building a school in their village.
The school project
The 947 breakfast show host shared images of the progress of the construction and brands that are assisting the family.
“The school my father is building in our village. Ncembu kuTsolo. My father attended Grade 1 in a hut on the very ground he has built this school on. Some brands I work with have come on board like, LEGO bricks will be doing the Early Childhood Development centre for us.”
Many commentators congratulated the Mdodas for making a change in their community and contributing back to society rather than waiting on the government to do things.
