In Loving Memory of Matekola: A Legacy Rooted in the Soil

Shaping the Future of Farming

Matekola’s success is just one of many, proving that with dedication and the right training, anyone can thrive in agriculture. At Moripe College, we continue to empower students, helping them transition into industry leaders and job creators.

Matekola began his journey with little more than a small plot of land and a deep passion for farming. Through his time at Moripe College, he embraced every lesson, mastering modern agricultural techniques and business strategies. What began as a modest dream soon flourished into a thriving agribusiness. His fields grew abundant, and so did his impact.

It is with heavy hearts that we remember one of Moripe College’s most remarkable graduates, Matekola — a man whose quiet strength and unwavering dedication transformed not only his own life, but the lives of many around him.

More than a successful farmer, Matekola became a mentor and a pillar in his community, generously sharing his knowledge and guiding others on the path he once walked alone. His commitment to growth, learning, and giving back will forever be etched into the heart of Moripe College.

Though he is no longer with us, Matekola’s story continues to inspire. It is a testament to what is possible when education, perseverance, and purpose come together. His life reminds us that true success lies not just in what we achieve, but in what we leave behind.

Kagiso's Testimony

My name is Kagiso Kabini from Verena, and I own Ngangezwe Project, based in Verena. Moripe College has been instrumental in helping me achieve my dream of becoming a great farmer. They made me realize that farming is about more than just planting and selling on the streets.

For me, Moripe College has broadened my perspective and given me the tools to improve and excel in my business. They have helped me become one of the youngest farmers poised to expand into the larger market by providing high-quality vegetables—especially spinach. Thanks to Moripe College, I now see new opportunities and a brighter future in farming.
