Richard Molefe, a final-year BCom Investment Management and Banking
student at the University of the Free State (UFS), was recently elected uncontested as the National Chairperson of the Black Management Forum (BMF) National Student Chapter. The BMF aims to empower managerial leadership among black individuals in South Africa. Molefe's election signifies a step towards inclusive leadership structures that reflect wider societal values.
In an exclusive interview, Molefe shares his vision for youth empowerment and his plans for the Student Chapter's endeavours.
“The Black Management Forum’s programmes of development and advancement of managerial leadership and socio-economic transformation have exposed me to leadership opportunities that enhance my potential and aspirations. The opportunity is an indication that I have done something right, but I must constantly remind myself that I have not arrived,” said Molefe.
In his one-year term of office, Molefe wants to ensure that national structures of the Student Chapter exist and are functional, key pillars – promoting leadership, managerial leadership development skills, and entrepreneurial skills development in higher education institutions.

Eerste Nasionale Bank (ENB) het onlangs die ENB Varsitybeker-kompetisie, waarin Suid-Afrika se top-universiteite teen mekaar gaan meeding, aan die Universiteit van die Vrystaat (UV) bekend gestel.
Die Varsitybeker-konsep bestaan uit agt spanne wat op Maandae teen mekaar sal meeding, gevolg deur twee halfeindstryde en ‘n eindstryd. Die wedstryde skop 18 Februarie 2008 af en die laaste wedstryd sal op 7 April 2008 gespeel word. Die Shimlas se wedstryde (4) begin op 25 Februarie 2008 teen die Universiteit van Johannesburg en eindig op 15 Maart 2008 teen die Nelson Mandela Metropolitaanse Universiteit.
‘n ENB Varsitybeker-feestoernooi word oor die Paasnaweek in April vanjaar in George beplan waar al agt spanne elk drie ligawedstryde sal speel. ‘n Koshuis van elk van die agt spanne se universiteit sal ook die geleentheid kry om teen mekaar in George te speel. Dit sal die eerste keer in die Suid-Afrikaanse rugbygeskiedenis wees dat universiteitskoshuise in ‘n toernooi teen mekaar sal meeding.
