Local man wins award for helping people find jobs

Nkuzi Ya Managa known as Rivalani Kennedy Shibiti, is a local man from Giyani who created a Facebook page where he helps people in need of jobs.

“I am a very helpful person.

I am genuinely kind and care for others, even when I know they are taking advantage of my good nature.

I created the group and named Gingirikani Vantshwa Va Limpopo ‘Youth Get Busy’ (GVVL).

The reason for creating the group, is because I spend most of my time online and visit companies’ websites to check if they are hiring.

I then copy it to another platform,” he said.

The purpose of the group is to share a vacancies of a wide range.

“If we work together, we can fight unemployment and poverty.

Unemployment remains one of the biggest challenges we face as a nation.

So, we need to stand together.

“Last year I was nominated by GAMA (Golden Arts & Media Awards) in the category Best Male Individual.

It was not easy to overcome all the challenges, but in the end I made it.

I won the Best Male Individual Award,” he said.

“Thanks to all who voted and all those who’ve supported me, my family, community, GVVL administrators, Hlamalani Dephney Rikhotso, Tshembie N’wa-Valoyi, Honest Mahlanyisa and ALL the members of the group,” he added.
