Tfwala was among the over 4 000 graduands of the University of Eswatini\u2019s (UNESWA) 41st Graduation, this past week. \u201cMost people were shocked that I was studying because they thought that as an athlete or a sports personality, you did not need education. But I believe that personal development is key, and education is one of the paths to take, as it helps open many doors for you, and you can rely on it more especially after reaching your expiry date as an athlete,\u201d Samu said.<\/p>\n<p>Her recent educational accomplishment follows her Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Arts Humanities, which she obtained to youngsters. \u201cI would like to encourage every athlete to explore this route, as it is possible to do it with the same effort of dedication and determination that you put in as an athlete,\u201d she said. After winning almost every race this year, Samu said was focused on maintaining her record until her retirement. She is proud of her achievements and hopes to leave a legacy in the sport. \u201cI love running and I will always run as long as I can. It is my passion and my life,\u201d the road queen said. Behind her success are a supportive family and the REPS who also help her juggle between work, running and education.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
