Stacey and J Sbu share their #FeelGoodTuesday story with KZN: A Gardner turned to Lawyer

Loading player...
It is a Tuesday and every Tuesday on the show we like to start off the show with some feel good content.

Today they they told KZN about two great ordinary South Africans. Firstly, was Robert Maposa who is a testament to never giving up on your dreams, regardless of the challenges and the route that it will take to achieving them.

Robert juggled his gardening job as well as other odd jobs to help put himself through law school, and If you know anyone who has studied law- you would know how difficult law is and how much intel has to be absorbed, Robert did this whilst working 3 jobs.

But wait wait for it, his friend and son of one of his employer's- Jonathan Smith decided to do something to help Robert. He contributed and kickstarted a crowd funding campaign to help him make it to his evening classes. This fund campaign was for Robert to be able to purchase him a second-hand car that he could use.
