A former anti-apartheid activist, New Zealander John Minto, has been approached by the Durban-based shack-dwellers' organisation, Abahlali baseMjondolo to help shack-dwellers in South Africa by talking to the government on their behalf, according to the SABC news website.
Minto attended Abahlali's meeting in Durban at the weekend.
The organisation invited Minto to witness the plight of shack-dwellers and use his international clout to assist them in getting proper houses.
