ZIFA presidential aspirant Magwizi graduates with Master’s Degree
As Strive Masiyiwa gets Honorary doctorate at the same varsity
South Africa- ZIFA presidential aspirant and Banket United Board member Nqobile Magwizi has made yet another milestone in his academic exploits and graduated with a Master’s in Philosophy in Development Finance (Mphildevfinance) from the prestigious Stellenbosch University in South Africa.
Magwizi’s academic achievement is a testament to his dedication to education and his passion for football development.
Magwizi wasn’t the only one celebrating a major milestone, technology entrepreneur and investor Strive Masiyiwa, a pioneer of the mobile telecommunications sector in Africa, received an honorary doctorate in Engineering from Stellenbosch University on the same day.
Masiyiwa’s visionary leadership has helped to cement Africa’s telecoms industry and business sector, while his philanthropy has improved socioeconomic development to the benefit of the continent’s people.
However, what has drawn the interests of the football stakeholders is Magwizi’s dissertation, titled “Sport Participation and Economic Growth: The Case of Sub-Saharan Countries and the Impact of Performance in the Africa Cup of Nations Tournament,”
This is a groundbreaking study that explores the relationship between sports participation and economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa. The research also delves into the impact of performance in the Africa Cup of Nations tournament on economic growth.
