In exclusive comment to Briefly News, she said:

"I grew up as an orphan. My granny was taking care of me. Since I turned 21, I thought that I should actually look for a shack where I'll start my life since I know that she's getting older and if I'm not gonna make up something for myself, when she's gone, I'll struggle more.

"Having to build the shack was a struggle since I was saving money from the allowance I'm getting every year from NSFAS. But with God guiding me, I was able to build a shelter that today I'm proud of."

Lethabo expressed her desire to enhance her living space further, saying:
