Kids sleeping on floor as family of 10 placed into 2-bedroom apartment

Mildred Armah Reporter from Manukau Courier

Eleven-year-old Fatima Al Assi​ dreams of the days when she was able to ​run around her house with her friends.

Friends she hasn’t been able to invite over for almost a month, since her family of 10 were forced to move into a two-bedroom apartment in Manukau, south Auckland.

“We used to have people coming over, but now we can't do anything. We can’t really run around or sleep properly,” Al Assi says.
