    "A South African woman had laid claim to being the world's oldest person - 132 years old - and an organisation representing the old was adamant the accomplishment be officially recognised, a report said yesterday. Moloko Temo of Bochum in Limpopo was reportedly born on July 4 1874, according to a government identity document issued to her in 1988, the Afrikaans-language Beeld daily said."
