a house in Johannesburg, demolished it and then built a better house.
She said building a big house for her father was something that she had
always wanted to do. Modiadie said after she lost her mother, at the age
of 10, she felt that she needed to take care of her father the best way
possible.
“I feel fulfilled now that it has finally happened,” she told Sowetan.“This has reminded me of how faithful God is and how he
always keeps his promise that ‘anything you ask for in my name, you
shall receive’. I wanted it to be exactly what I had envisioned for my
dad.”
Modiadie, who is engaged to marry Nkululeko Buthelezi, said it was
important for her to take care of her home first before embarking on
another life journey.
“It’s unfortunate when you see people living large while
their parents [and] family members aren’t taken care of. I understand
that some dynamics are different, but home should always come first.”“I’ve always been a huge fan of saving. So when I wanted to
take this on, there was already money set aside for a project of this
magnitude.”
About her father, she said:
“My father loves it. He’s a proud dad right now, that’s for sure. He was
surprised when I presented his gift and had a lot of questions to ask!”
