Although Mkhize stopped attending a local gym held three times a week in a church in July, it had been part of his life for decades.

"I'm not on any medication because I don't have any disease in my body, it's just old age only," he said.

His hearing is sharp for someone his age. He watches television to kill time and lists gospel shows as his favourite. Mkhize lived alone until his 60-year old granddaughter Nancy, joined him recently to assist around the house."I remember growing up my grandfather used to tell me stories of the past and I enjoyed them so much and I now wish to grow and reach his age."He was already married to his late wife Martha Mkhize who died in 1985 and had three daughters who have all also passed away.

Mkhize had nine grandchildren, two who have died , five great-grandchildren and 13 great-great-grandchildren. Mkhize dressed up to the nines for his big day last week, which was attended by close family and friends.Would you like to comment on this article or view other readers' comments?
