Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 28712, member: 2262"] Peggy Ngendu hopes to beat tough challenges as she competes for the Miss Rural Zimbabwe Matabeleland North crown. The young woman looks up to Zodwa Mkandla and wants to become just as successful as her hero. At age 21, Peggy shows the great drive and ambition needed to make an impact both locally and beyond her community. She knows the road ahead has many obstacles but believes her hard work will help her reach amazing goals. Zodwa stands out in travel and hotel businesses, catching Peggy's attention because of her amazing life story. Starting from simple beginnings, Zodwa became famous across Zimbabwe. Her strength and business smarts inspire young women like Peggy to chase their dreams without giving up. Peggy spoke about her situation, saying she tried modeling after she had to stop school three years ago. As a Xhosa girl from Mbembesi, she wants her community to become known worldwide. Peggy admires how Zodwa worked hard and overcame obstacles despite coming from a humble background. She loves Zodwa and plans to make her mark on the world just like her role model did. During her journey as a rural model, Peggy realized she must stay strong to represent other country girls who need help. She wants her community to feel proud and hopes to become someone others can look up to. Peggy recently met Zodwa face-to-face, which filled her with excitement and new ideas. Both women come from Mbembesi, creating a special bond between them. This meeting fueled Peggy's belief that with hard work and good advice, she could achieve great things. Peggy mentioned meeting Zodwa during a trip to Harare, calling it an amazing experience. She seeks help with both her modeling career and education. Peggy currently works as a presenter at Ingqanga FM, a community radio station in Mbembesi. The station aims to keep Xhosa culture and language alive as part of government efforts to spread information and help forgotten communities. She travels across Zimbabwe with other beauty contestants under Sipho Mazibuko, who guides their development. Peggy describes these travels as amazing chances to learn from other models and share stories. She talked about problems affecting girls where she lives and found many similar issues across different areas. Peggy hopes to gain useful skills before the national pageant begins. She urges lawmakers to step in and help rural girls who face sexual abuse and rape. She has seen harassment cases in her community and believes officials must address these growing problems quickly. For herself, Peggy only asks for guidance from her role model to shine throughout Zimbabwe and beyond its borders. Peggy feels confident about her new path in modeling. She believes she can succeed like Zodwa, who rose from simple beginnings through dedication. With proper guidance, training, and extra effort, Peggy dreams of making her mark in beauty contests and media work. [/QUOTE]
