“We are proud that the grand prize was won by someone from this province.”
Thamakga, a third year student at Empilweni College of Nursing, thanked SAB Polokwane.
“I am so happy that I am the winner of the competition. I thank God for the miracle that He performed for me. The money came at just the right time. I am going to renovate my house.
