Message to the Youth of Eswatini at the Lutfo Dlamini Foundation Entrepreneurship Training

Dear young visionaries of Eswatini,

Today marks more than just a gathering—it marks the beginning of a powerful journey. You are not here by accident. You are the future of Eswatini, and what you choose to do with your ideas, your energy and your talents will shape the Eswatini we all want to see.

The time has come for us to stop waiting for jobs and start creating them. The future belongs to the creators, the doers, the dreamers who dare to act. Companies like Instacash and many others have your back—ready to support you in building businesses, solving problems and unlocking your full potential.

Being an entrepreneur is not the easy road. It means dreaming big—so big that sometimes people may laugh or call you crazy. But you are in good company. Think of Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba. He was rejected from jobs—including KFC!—and failed multiple times before creating a business that became a global empire. Today, Jack Ma is celebrated not because he followed the crowd, but because he believed in his vision when no one else did.

So, to all of you here today: don’t just sit and complain about what’s wrong. Look around. Every challenge you see in your community is an opportunity waiting to be turned into a business. Those who solve real problems are always rewarded—by society, by the market and by history.

Let today be the spark that ignites your fire. Eswatini is waiting for your ideas. Your generation will build the future industries, create jobs and lead change. Don’t wait for a miracle—be the miracle.

You are the builders of tomorrow. So build with courage, with purpose and with pride.

Thank you and go change the world—one idea at a time.
