Families living in shacks at Seaview Cemetery in Durban

View descriptionShare

Over 400 families are living in shacks at Seaview Cemetery in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, with some households built directly on graves. The settlements, which began forming in 1981, have grown as families previously relocated to Welbedacht in Chatsworth in the early 2000s have returned, alongside new informal structures. The eThekwini Municipality is now urging residents to respect the sacred nature of cemeteries. For more, Elvis Presslin spoke to Ndabezinhle Sibiya, spokesperson for the MEC for Transport and Human Settlements in KwaZulu-Natal
