Children abandon 80-year-old granny

Community members in Makokoba, Bulawayo, have taken over the welfare of an 80-year-old woman who has apparently been abandoned by her children.

The octogenarian, identified as Gogo Khethiwe Ncube, was discovered by neighbours on Friday noon in a sorry state without anyone to take care of her.

Neighbours who spoke to Newsday were still in shock over her deplorable state.
