Almost 900 families in Philippi and Nyanga, South Africa, are undergoing a significant relocation effort due to their proximity to the railway tracks of the Central Line. The move has faced setbacks and delays, with only ten out of 891 huts moved as of last Thursday afternoon, and families continue to struggle with the absence of basic necessities, such as toilets and running water. The new location is also close to the respected Somagwaza Institute, causing concern over the conflict between tradition and social progression. The future remains uncertain, but families are navigating this transition with tenacity and optimism amid hardship.
