It took media personality Lerato Mvelase 10 years to finish her communications degree and sis is heading back to school this year to get another qualification.

The actress and TV host took to Instagram to share that she is studying towards a post-graduate diploma in business management at Regenesys Business School.

"Moral of the story, never compare your situation to others for your circumstances are very different.

"At that time I was raising my kids, breastfeeding the other and working. It wasn’t easy. I felt like dropping out a lot of times, but those little faces needed someone to look up to, needed an inspiration. I had to make sure that I’m that inspiration. I had to make sure I help them see the possibility of achieving in a world that says they can’t."

Lerato has been vocal about her plans for 2022 and said it is her year of saying yes.

On Monday Oscar "DJ Oskido" Mdlongwa revealed on Instagram that he has gone back to school.

The Kalawa Jazmee record label owner shared a picture of himself in a lecture room, revealing he had started studying in a five-month project management programme at the University of Pretoria.

"Today I embark on a new challenge by going back to school. I have enrolled at [the] University of Pretoria for a five-month project management programme. That's 8am to 5pm, one week per month. Believers, let’s keep growing and empowering ourselves," he said.
