A retired farmworker with 24 children faces eviction on Monday from a Kei Mouth farm where he has worked for 27 years. But the government has vowed to defend the family and a lawyer has been appointed to take up the fight.
The former employers of Andazi Menziwe, 68, have given him until Monday to find alternative accommodation for his two wives, 23 of his children aged from onemonth to 37, two dogs, four goats and 10 cows.
