Radio presenter Seipati "Twasa" Seoke recently added another feather to her cap — an MBA from GIBS Business School.

The Lesedi FM presenter dedicated her qualification to her late dad. In a lengthy post on LinkedIn, the former Jam Alley presenter said she was proud to have achieved the academic milestone because it was something her father wanted, but couldn't attain.

“My late parents are not here to see this, but I carried their blood and dreams as I walked across the stage. My father wanted an MBA, he dropped out of the programme the month I was involved in an almost-fatal car accident in 2002. If he was here, I would tell him, 'Papa, I made it. I got it done'," the broadcaster wrote.

Twasa has been focused on achieving academic goals and received a postgraduate diploma in general management from GIBS last year.

After doing so, she took to social media to share the official photographs from the graduation ceremony, with a motivational message.

“There is something powerful about making a decision, being willing to sacrifice and walk by faith. New dimensions of life open up, the never-seen-before kind. I'm still not where I set out to go, but I'm no longer where I used to be. Dropout to graduate, I simply had to change the narrative.

“God makes the plans for us, and they are great plans. But we decide how much of those plans we manifest and experience. We decide how much and how far. Write your story, and make it a pleasant read for you and your Maker. Your narrative is in your hands. Decide, I did! I'm thankful,” she wrote.
