Welcome To FOCUS!

Isn’t amazing how life can easily knock you down? Knock you down even when you have all the information you need to get you up… It’s true we may not have the same amount of money and everything but at the end of the day we are all tempted and faced with equal challenges.
I believe that our challenges are meant for us according to God’s will. I am someone who truly believes in the word of God. Why? Because it is the only book that I find to do wonders in my life. How God articulate wisdom in the book, it just easily correlate to our daily lives. 
With all that being said, let me welcome you officially to my blog. I have been on and off with Focus Magazine, things happened to me therefore I needed to restructure myself, my mind and everything within me to serve a great purpose to my audience. Honestly speaking I am nothing without people who read my work and follow me.
I am here to serve a great purpose. I remember Pastor Ndlovu from my church, where I fellowship The Living Christ Centred Ministry (LCCM), Mookgophong, saying that it is a great honour to stand before crowds and tell them a message of encouragement. He added that a job of being a pastor is very serious because they deal with people’s souls and one cannot afford to make a mistake in doing that, which I believe is true.
In that same spirit, I want to say to you that I take this job very serious to make sure that I write what is true without fear of losing followers or gaining them. Life is not a joke, of course there’s a time to loosen up a bit but loosening up according to my understanding doesn’t mean that I should gamble with my life or others’. 
Here’s what to expect: My blog posts will be mostly based on real issues affecting black communities, our education system, our justice system, our health, our beauty etc. 
Lol, don’t panic we are going to have a good time I promise. I will have different columnists who will be working with me on my posts. Like I said earlier on that I am not here to waste time, the information that will be gathered will be treated with care. 
Now let’s FOCUS.

109 YEARS OLD - DIKUBU PRIMARY SCHOOL BACKGROUND EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH THE CURRENT PRINCIPAL MAHLAHLANI INTRO Naboomspruit Amalgamated School, today known as Dikubu Primary school was established in 1910 by the Church of England before the Anglican and Lutheran Churches took over.  The name Dikubu comes from the sound of the Hippopotamus which was heard making sounds in the river during rainy seasons. It is believed that the name also comes from the plantations which grew where the township is currently situated as it was shaped like a sjambok, “ kubu ” in Sepedi. When the school relocated to the township it had no sufficient classrooms. The Lutheran, New Reformed (Dutch), AME, AFM and Anglican churches opened their doors to accommodate some classes. The Khosa family next to the old graveside also opened their garage to accommodate some classes during difficult times.  The school was built by members of the community using self-made bricks .
