Phindile Gwala graduates with 10 distinctions

Congratulations are in order to former Uzalo actress and awards presenter Phindile Gwala, who recently shared the exciting news of her graduation, receiving lots of congratulatory messages from industry friends and fans.

Phindile did not just earn herself a Bachelor of Commerce degree but, she also obtained 10 distinctions in the process, proving just how smart she really is.

There have been many actors who have taken similar routes, going back to school to further their studies, with some starting their education journey.

Lerato Mvelase is currently busy with her MBA after graduating from Regenesys. Her brother ProVerb graduated yesterday from the same institution.

Sharing her graduation picture, Phindile captioned her post:

“This has been a long road. The milestone achieved, I am grateful and to God be the glory for His mercies endures forever. Today I am a Bachelor of Commerce Graduate with 10 distinctions.”

Many internet users rushed to her comment section to congratulate the actress, sharing:

“Congratulations my beautiful sister you work so hard! I’m so proud of you.”

Sihleka nawe kanti you’re a commerce nton nton (we are busy laughing with you meanwhile you’re a commerce expert) Congratulations my crush gorgeous and intelligent. So inspiring,” said one user.

Congratulations mzala wam (my cousin), thank you for doing us proud. Juggling between work & studies & playing a role of being a full-time mom ain’t easy but buka je 10 wonke (look now 10 distinctions) well done sis.
