Show profile Hide profileSiviwe Siretshe, born on the 30th of March 1986, was brought up in a Christian family in a small village called Mimosa Park, in King William's Town, one of the areas where people from the Farm Field near Graham's town were moved to during the Apartheid era.
Primary school was at Mimosa and he went on to pass his Matric at Welcomewood High school (2005). After studying Versatile Broadcasting and Journalism at Walter Sisulu University for Science and Technology, he went to work as a Trainee Reporter for the Destiny Media Productions newspaper (Eastern Cape Voice News) in King William's Town. His mission was of informing, educating, entertaining and inspiring the general public.
His career as a Broadcast Journalist began on the 3rd of April 2011, with the appointment as Intern Community Journalist for the Community Media Trust. On arrival at the CMT offices, he didn't know much about HIV and other STI's. Needless to say Siviwe was always creeping and crawling around the office like an infant. Thanks to the supportive CMT Trainers and the rest of the team for not giving up on him but made it easier to adjust.
Siviwe is a very private, shy, quite an open-minded fellow, who always does things to his level best and finds it hard to live without his family. "I am nothing without my family".
"All I'm striving for is a HIV free society, I'm fighting the discrimination against people living with HIV and I want to bring back the value of "Ubuntu", the value that held us together but the major question is: If I am the question, would you be the solution?"
