South Africa's President Jacob Zuma has paid for non-security upgrades to his private Nkandla home, the National Treasury said on Monday, in line with a court order issued in March.
"We can confirm as the National Treasury that the payment has been received," a spokeswoman for the Treasury said.
In June, the Treasury said that Zuma should pay 7.8 million rand ($537,000) for the non-security upgrades, after the Constitutional Court in March ordered Zuma to pay back some of the $16 million of state money spent upgrading his private home.
