GREAT Zimbabwe University student Farai Matende (26), who was inspired by Prophetic Healing and Deliverance Ministries founder Walter Magaya, will conduct a public lecture on leadership and entrepreneurship at his former school.
The 26-year-old author said he was going to give back to the community — his former school Rimbi High School in Chipinge — through a public lecture.
“I am going to do a public lecture for Rimbi High School students and am targeting O and A Level students,” Matende told Standard Style on Thursday.
“I am going to do the public lecture early next month, but I am still coming up with a date as I am working with the school authorities.”
He said the lecture would be focused on leadership and entrepreneurship lessons.
“That is where I did my high school and as someone with an expertise in leadership and entrepreneurship, I see it fit to impart that kind of knowledge to the young people,” he said.
“I was also inspired to be a profound writer through attending these leadership and entrepreneurship conferences by Prophet Magaya. These are behaviour attitude change lessons targeting to change the behaviour and attitudes of the students, the main aim being to create champions in business and community leadership.”
