EThekwini mayor announces repatriation efforts for Malawian nationals in South Africa.
As the clock ticks down on the June 30 anti-immigration deadline, nearly 4,000 Malawian nationals have already been deported or repatriated from South Africa, said eThekwini mayor Cyril Xaba.
Xaba was speaking at the newly opened Drive-Inn staging site in Durban, where an estimated 10,000 Malawians are camped across two sites waiting to go home.
Vulnerable groups, including women, children, and the sick, have been moved there from the overcrowded Sherwood Hall site nearby.
"We have already begun relocating vulnerable groups to this site, including women, children, and individuals with health challenges," Xaba said.
