"I am a mother and a family person. More importantly, I am from KwaZulu-Natal and these are my people. I can’t just fold my arms and do nothing about this situation.”

The publication also reported that MaMkhize said she is working hand in hand with the responsible authorities on the project. She said the eThekwini Municipality will avail the land while the department of correctional services will provide the labour.

She also added that she is not the one who will select the beneficiaries, but she will leave it to the responsible authorities. She said:

“I don’t know who will benefit because it is not my call. I have asked the municipality to identify about 20 families from the affected communities."
