“We have noted that the majority of those who have lodged claims since the re-opening of the lodgement of land claims have opted for financial compensation,” said chief land claims commissioner Nomfundo Gobodo.
Gobodo also said that claiming the land would be a more suitable choice for claimants, which would help tackle the issue of uneven land-ownership correctly.
