Your grandmother is now the owner of the property by the law of survivorship. She can deed the property to anyone while she is alive (keeping a life interest) or she can make a Will and devise the property to whoever she wishes.
If she dies without a Will (intestate) then the land will be distributed according to the Administration of Estate Act .....legal spouse , children.....parents.....siblings and so on
