Meet a young journalist making her mark with a blog in Mamelodi East

The Daily Vox FORTUNATE MACHABA is taking her own destiny into her hands through her news blog while also working as a public relations practitioner. She spoke to Precious Mphahlele about her passion for journalism. I was born in Mamelodi East and was raised by my grandmother. I lost my mother at the age of 10 and my father at seven, so you could imagine that there was a lot happening in my life that was challenging from a young age. I had to focus on school while still dealing with challenges at home. Juggling studies and a hectic home life was stressful, but I believe that all the challenges had an impact on my life. I wouldn’t be the person I am today if I didn’t go through all I went through.
