Angole Jacob is a determined and multi-talented young boy from Tegwana, currently in Primary Five at Kims Christian School in Amuru District. At just 15, Jacob dreams of pursuing a dual path: to become both an electrical engineer and a professional footballer.
He is the third-born in a family of five children, raised by his single mother, who works hard to support the family through a small meat-roasting business. Jacob lost his father at a young age, and his mother’s resilience has been a major source of inspiration in his life.
Jacob is not only committed to his education but also shines on the football pitch. A skilled defender for Kumalo Sports Academy, he has gained recognition for his sharp game sense, discipline, and consistent improvement.
With the support of the Nyero Foundation, Jacob has been able to continue his education while developing his athletic and professional ambitions. He is a remarkable example of what determination and opportunity can achieve.
