A 31-year-old man from Mfuleni, who is competing in Mister Global South Africa (MGSA) 25, is appealing to the community to support him through voting.
Masithembe Rawe is one of 10 men currently vying for the MGSA title, with his eyes firmly set on Mister Global pageant.
Mister Global South Africa (MGSA) is a male beauty pageant that selects the male to represent South Africa at the global showpiece.
The finals for the event will be at Colosseum Reale Venue in Pretoria, on Saturday 26 July and the winner will represent the country in Thailand later this year.
MGSA aims to identify positive male role models and provide finalists with coaching, mentoring, and networking opportunities.
Rawe said winning the competition will fulfil his childhood dream.
He said being Mister Global SA is everyone’s dream.
“I saw the advert on social media late last year. I decided to enter it online and I was fortunate because they selected me. There were 18 of us and by entering the competition we were automatically the semi-finalists,” explained Rawe.
He said they were given some activities to select the finalists based on their tasks.
“The criteria was to do some charity work. We were instructed to fundraise an amount of R1 000. I did that and submitted everything before the deadline. I was selected for the 10,” he said.
The winners were announced on Saturday 12 April at The Social Grill Restaurant in Pretoria.
Rawe said they are currently doing some charity work, visiting and motivating high school learners.
He has also been tasked with raising R6 000. These will be used to decide who goes through to the next round.
However, he also needs public support.
“All I’m asking now that the people vote for me. They can send a sms -WIN MGSA 7 to 47439. The SMS cost R3 each and it’s free when voting on public holidays,” he urged.
