Tertiary Institution: University of the Western Cape, Cape Town

Field of study: Bachelor degree Commerce

Our Asemahle Mfiki has been a part of the Born in Africa program since she was a Crags Primary school learner.  She proudly graduated from Wittedrift Highschool where she did our program very proud.  She was a school prefect in Gr 12 in 2025 and played first team netball.  During high school, her loving nature and kind demeanour made her a very popular student.  Asemahle was also a hostel prefect as she was a weekly boarder and having her around, made life very pleasant for all our students who lived with Asemahle.  Therefor, it is no surprise that she was selected by Born in Africa to further her tertiary studies.  At the beginning of 2026, she commenced her Bachelor of Commerce degree at the University of the Western Cape. She will be selecting her speciality in a year or two’s time, but it is very clear that the business world is where she wants to work in.  We have faith that our Asemahle is going to be making us extremely proud in the classroom, but also on the netball court at UDubs!
