Conflict brews over land dispute near Bizana, Eastern Cape

A conflict over a land dispute is brewing at KwaMzizi near Bizana in the Eastern Cape. A group of people have invaded a piece of land halting the forestry and sand mining projects being operated on the land. The people who have invaded the land says the area of more than ten thousand hectares does not benefit the community. The residents say the government recognised the dispossession of their land during the 1980's and compensation of more than R40-thousand was paid out to 883 families each. But residents say the government failed to meet it's commitments to establish community development programmes. For more news, visit sabcnews.com and also #SABCNews on Social Media.
