Zuma’s Durban residence closed

The president's house has been declared unfit for human habitation.

THE official residence designated for use by the president and deputy president in Durban‚ John Dube House‚ cannot be used due to damage caused by recent floods in KwaZulu-Natal.

According to a statement released yesterday, President Zuma would not be able to use the home, which has been declared temporarily unfit for human habitation.

“The Department of Public Works, which is the line function department responsible for the residences, is exploring alternative accommodation until the residence has been renovated,” the Presidency said on Wednesday.

The house, which was completed in 1904, is the official residence designated for use by the president and deputy president in Durban.
