Why ferry?

Sorry, dof question allert! but to trace what lead up to this all, why was this a/c empty in the first place? was it a mx flight? is there a mx base in Durban? and had it just come out of mx? or was it going to JNB for MX? If so what work was done on it or what work was going to be done on it? Was it carrying snags that could only be fixed in JNB? It just seems odd to me that this a/c was empty in the first place? Or do airlines often do positioning flights?

Wishing a speedy recovery to the crew and unlucky municipal worker
