THE FUSE

Ten years ago, Katlego Kubedi stood among the ashes of the shack that had been set alight by her ex-husband and faced a future filled with uncertainty. Instead of allowing the devastating experience to define her life, she gathered the corrugated iron left behind and used it to construct the roof of her first chicken coop. That simple act became a powerful symbol of determination and marked the beginning of a farming journey that would transform her life and inspire many others. Today, Katlego is a successful poultry and crop farmer who supplies broilers and eggs to customers in her community, tertiary institutions and government clients. Her journey shows how courage, perseverance, a willingness to learn and a strong belief in oneself can help a person rebuild even after experiencing profound hardship.
