Kulani’s tough childhood finally leads to success
Hardship has taught 23-year-old Kulani Novela to be a problem solver and a hustler.
As the older sibling of three children, he had to grow up fast after losing his parents in a car crash at the age of 14.
The tragedy made him look for ways to provide for himself and his siblings.
In high school, he loved Geography and was fascinated by rock formations and soil composition.
As a result, he started noting that water seepage was destroying people’s houses.
He started doing some research about the problem and discovered that there is a way of solving the problem.

Through his savings and good Samaritans, he managed to go to Johannesburg where he studied chemical production and waterproofing.
In December last year, he started manufacturing his own product which he calls Dr Proofing which that serves as an enhancer for moulding, plastering, waterproofing and painting.
The product is currently available at selected hardware stores.

“Keep on pushing, this world is full of opportunities that are waiting for you, never lose hope because hope never disappoints.
It is my hope that young people will become problem solvers in our communities.
“The key is to challenge yourself to do what other people think is impossible,” he advised young people.
