African students show skills in contest

A group of talented African students had their vocational skills put to the test at the Africa Tech Challenge Season IX 2024 in Beijing recently, and for many of the winners, the experience was a dream come true.

This was particularly the case for Makwiti Tapiwa Mpofu from Zimbabwe and Boateng Anthony from Ghana, two first-place winners at the event.

"I want to thank the ATC for making all their efforts to help talented youngsters in Africa and letting us showcase our talent here in the capital city of China," said Mpofu, who is a student at Ningbo Polytechnic, a vocational college in Zhejiang province. "I do hope the ATC will continue to let the African students be proud of what they can do and help them to live their dreams."
