Epeli Kurisoqo, a 22-year-old from Keasi Village in Namataku, Navosa, has successfully completed his Certificate in Agriculture (Level 3).

A former student of Navosa Central College, Epeli began his programme but faced financial difficulties in Semester 2, forcing him to return to the village.

His parents worked even harder on the farm so he could continue his education, and their sacrifice became his motivation to keep going.

Not the first in his family to pursue further studies, Epeli credits his success to determination and faith.

Guided by Luke 1:37 – “Nothing is impossible with God”, he believes hard work and the right choices can overcome any obstacle.

“I told my parents yesterday that I was graduating today and they thanked me,” he said.

“Behind all the difficulties you face, there is goodness behind it.”

Epeli shares maternal links to Wauosi Village in Namataku, Navosa.

He is currently pursuing his Diploma in Agriculture.
