A self-styled "African tribe" that is camping in woodland in Scotland is staying put despite an eviction notice from the local council.
The so-called Kingdom of Kubala was ordered to vacate the land on the outskirts of Jedburgh by 12pm on Monday, after Scottish Borders Council began legal action to evict them.They had previously been camping on private land a few metres away but simply set up a new camp on council property when sheriff officers were sent in to remove them.
The tribe is made up of leader Kofi Offeh, 36, the self-proclaimed "King Atehene", his wife Jean Gasho, 43, who calls herself "Queen Nandi", and "handmaiden" Kaura Taylor, who calls herself "Asnat".On Monday afternoon, the trio sat around a campfire singing songs with a number of tents and other camping equipment still on the site, showing no intention of leaving.
Ms Taylor said the "king" would not be speaking to the media unless gifts were brought to him.
It is understood the local authority will shortly seek an order from a sheriff to remove the unwanted campers now that the deadline has passed.
