Child-headed Bay family gets new home
Zwane also unveiled a community center at Port Dunford which will service a number of communities and surrounding areas.
A RICHARDS Bay based child-headed family is one of 44 families who received new homes thanks to the Department of Mineral Recourses and Richards Bay Minerals.
The houses were built as part of a social and labour programme targeting previously disadvantaged communities in the area, and were handed over by Minister of Mineral Resources Mosebenzi Zwane.
The Msweli family, a child-headed household of 12, will be moving into their new home next week.
