Impressed with his story, LinkedIn users congratulated him and celebrated his feat.

Wilfred Lindalo said: Kudos for the achievement. I must admit I failed to understand the correlation between your coming from a village and your PhD. I know a handful of people in a village in Southern Africa with PhDs though, and many others with none who have achieved a lot yet proud to have done it whilst staying put in their villages.Whatever you aim at can surely be achieved from anywhere

Mmabatho Moeletsi : Shingirai, my brother, there is nothing wrong being from the village. We can all relate and is not a measurement of success. Instead your determination, hardwork, perseverance, intelligence brought your success. Kudos to you.

Lola O; Stay hungry and defy odds. You inspire many from your village, may your hands bless your village and those whose destinies are to be touched by you.

Status is reachable; Congratulations, very inspiring! And may I add that’s a mighty fine football shirt you have on there.
