THE doctors treating former South African leader Nelson Mandela believe he should remain in Johannesburg for now to be close to medical facilities that can provide care to the 94-year-old, the government said yesterday.
Mandela left a hospital on Wednesday evening after nearly three weeks of treatment for a lung infection, and was brought to his home in the Johannesburg neighborhood of Houghton. The anti-apartheid icon, also known by his clan name, Madiba, has lived for more than a year in the village of Qunu in Eastern Cape province, where he grew up.
"The doctors have considered it necessary and good that he should be in Houghton so that he's close to all the facilities where we can give him high care," presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj told eNCA, a TV news channel.
