Life Lessons Development Institute (LLDI) is a joint initiative between Vibe FM and Sotobe Projects. LLDI is the brainchild of Futhi Sibiya, a businessman who currently runs his own company (Sotobe Projects). This initaitive is aimed at giving the youth of KwaMashu guidence through life.  Futhi explains that the opening of the new community radio station at KwaMashu (Vibe FM) is a blessing to him because finally he can live his dream of becoming a mentor to the young people of KwaMashu.

Because of the many experiances that Futhi has had in life, he qualifies as a suitable candidate to give guidences to the youth of KwaMashu. While he was studying he also worked for the Post Office and after graduating he became a business consultant and than started his own business.

LLDI was launched in June 2009 when a pilot workshop was hosted at the Ekhaya Multi Art Centre.  The theme of the workshop was 'Building A Strong Conscience for Purposeful Living'.  In August, LLDI hosted a debate on issues affecting the youth between Nqabakazulu High and Newlands East Secondary.

Through initiatives such as LLDI, the rate of crime at KwaMashu will decrease and the youth of KwaMashu can start living a purposefull life.

Ntokozo Tshapa is from Ntuzuma and works as a presenter on the KwaMashu community radio station Vibe FM.
