The eThekwini Municipality has imposed a 14-day limit on the use of the former Durban Drive-In site as a temporary shelter for Malawian migrants. This decision follows objections from local residents regarding a proposed plan to relocate the migrants to the area. Mayor Cyril Xaba stated the site is not intended to be a permanent facility, addressing community concerns. The municipality aims to efficiently manage the influx of undocumented migrants with this temporary solution. Authorities have not detailed alternative plans for the migrants after the 14-day period expires. The move comes amid ongoing debate about accommodating migrants and addressing local resident anxieties. The city seeks a balance between humanitarian efforts and community interests.
