Gugulethu farmer evicted over dispute with development forum
Share
Cape Town - A Gugulethu community farmer has accused the Gugulethu Development Forum (GDF) of harassing and victimising her, disrupting her food distribution efforts.
Nomonde Kweza said the forum had colluded with the Ikhaya Loxolo Old Age Home board to evict her from the food garden she started in 2007, currently in the old age home, over differences in decisions taken by the forum.
She said three other farmers had stopped farming out of frustration, and the GDF was directly targeting her.
Kweza said this started last year during the handing over of the home from a previous service provider where the GDF saw an opportunity to position itself as board members.
