Having experienced a strained relationship with her mother, who ultimately abandoned her, Maumela found herself living alone in Mamvuku for an entire year. Recounting her struggles, she shared instances of washing dishes for neighbors and scraping pots for leftovers due to a lack of consistent family support.
Despite enduring taunts about her dark skin tone, with her own mother making hurtful comments, Maumela rose above the adversities. Over time, she and her mother reconciled, finding peace before her mother’s passing. Maumela Mahuwa’s resilience and grace in overcoming challenging circumstances serve as an inspiring testament to her strength, both on and off the screen.

The daughter of South African Reserve Bank Governor Lesetja Kganyago has been praised – and criticised – after her outstanding IEB matric pass made headlines. But backing Mmabodiba – who secured 11 distinctions at private school Cornwall Hill College – is media personality Anele Mdoda.

@ObserveMr: “Kids from affluent families getting distinctions should not be praised. It’s expected”

@AparryW: “Well done. If only ordinary South Africans could get private school-level quality education for their children.

@Dr_Shiyaklenga: “I’m sure she never had issues with loadshedding during exams.”

One tweep posted a video of learners who had to cross a river to commute to school. The tweep added: “Obviously, she didnt experience this when travelling to school.

Radio personality and podcaster Sol Phenduka was also one of the critics, tweeting: “Imagine if the average South African child could school on a full stomach, in well a resourced government school and coming from a peaceful and comfortable home. These kinds of stories would be a norm, and Southa would flourish on so many fronts.”

She added: “What I am saying is perhaps state that away from this little black girl’s achievements because sadly your tweet came with a tone of yeah but. She has 8 [11] distinctions. The end”.
