customary law and official customary law and indicate why the living customary
law is held to be more aligned to the transformative value of customary law in South
Africa. [25]
Official Customary Law
In general, the official customary law reflects state interests and is part of state law. The
official version of customary law is found in statutes, law reports, the South African Law
Reform Commission reports, text books, university lectures and other public documents.
According to Ndima, the official version of customary law depends on alien values for
validity. Mogoro J, in Du Plessis v De Klerk1, points out that customary law "has
lamentably been marginalised and allowed to degenerate into a vitrified set of norms
alienated from its roots in the community". Costa puts it thus:Customary law as it stands
is corrupted, inauthentic and lacking authority. It is a foreign imposition, a stranger in
Africa.2
In Fosi v Road Accident Fund,3 the court put it as follows:
Indigenous African customary law has occupied an unfortunate position in the legal
history of our country. The fact is that it was hardly recognized by the law-makers and
was accordingly scarcely applied in the South African courts. It enjoyed the status of being
known that it existed and its continued existence was merely tolerated as a necessary
evil.
In Sigcau v Sigcau,4 the Appellate Division held that the individual person was the owner
of the royal family home and not merely the controller of the property. Ndima 5 puts it thus:
