73-year-old man gets new furnished house in Amersfoort
Ms Shabalala said: “The first time I visited Mr Mkhulu Maduna, I was touched and at the time it was very cold and he was not well.”
Mr Solomon Maduna, a 73-year-old resident from Amersfoort, recently received a fully furnished house, after living in a dilapidated mud house.
The structure of the house was completely inhabitable and not safe for the elderly man to stay in, because it could collapse at anytime.
The house was handed over by Mpumalanga Community Safety, Security and Liaison MEC, Ms. Gabisile Shabalala and the executive mayor of Dr. Pixley Isaka Ka Seme Local Municipality, Mr Vincent Malatsi.
