ZombieTAMER:
I know they're all APc supporters

wicked people

mess up the country, relocate abroad

Sixfiguresmart:
They should quit giving out medical visas especially to politicians and their families.

TMKsouth:


I think the difference is that politicians pay handsomely to be in SA hospitals. Illegal immigrants don't.

quentin06:


Yes, imagine after stealing our money and grooving, they go to SA for free medical treatment in their municipal clinics!!!

These thieves wont even invest in our health centres and general hospitals to make them better.

Tianamen1:


What is the job of our political leaders? To create an environment where all can prosper and live safely. If the citizens are not prospering, the blame squarely lies on the ineptitude of the leaders.

Your sort of thinking is leading Nigeria to failed state status

Oddfinder001:

Fix ur damn country

jrusky:
But why is SA these bitter in everything now its no longer foreigners taking their women and their jobs but now their hospital?

Athemisia:

Like URS is perfect already right!?
Mr. Fix
Just look at these dogs we helped out of apartheid now coming to bark at us...
Irony of life..

Starzo:

No nigerian politician goes to sa for medical check-up. They all fly west.


And besides, this article isn't even about nigeria/nigerians sef

TMKsouth:


No, they don't pay tax! Do they pay tax in Nigeria?

@bolded - so you agree there are too many foreigners in SA?

BloomingDale:


I support you. Chase all our useless Nigerian men back to Nigeria to come and fix the country, so their women and children can live a better life.

TMKsouth:


80% of FREE births in some hospitals are for foreigners while South Africans can't get beds, and you say that ok and South Africans should shut up?

You're sick.

sammysneh:
What do you expect from South Africans very wicked set of individuals

GeneralPula:


TMK south my friend, it’s been a while. SA is one poor country in reality. It’s beautiful no lies, even tho there are slums everywhere..

Running a government doesn’t mean you’re running the country. Sometimes people who run the country are powerful than the government..

The whites are running the country, while blacks are running the government..

And please, the only Nigerians using SA health care are the ones living in SA. And it’s not for free, they’re paying for it,

But Nigerians going to SA for medical treatment? Nope!

TMKsouth:


No, they don't pay tax! Do they pay tax in Nigeria?

@bolded - so you agree there are too many foreigners in SA?

Oddfinder001:

Omo..if u had fixed ur country, u wouldn't have stooped this low to call those who worked hard for wat they enjoy today dogs..between Nigerians and south Africans, who we suppose de call dogs?

GeneralPula:


But the white South Africans are getting beds, so how come the blacks aren’t getting beds?

Welll, they can be using Mat then lol

A video of Limpopo province's health MEC (minister) Dr Phophi Ramathuba lashing out at a Zimbabwean patient at a government hospital has sparked an outcry in South Africa.

The MEC is heard telling the patient that migrants are to blame for her department's stretched budget.

Dr Angelique Coetzee, a Solidarity Doctors Network board member, said the MEC was out of line.

“This patient is a victim of the drama between the two countries. Even if they cross the border illegally to get health services, it’s not their fault. She [the MEC] wasn’t supposed to embarrass her like that in front of people.

“It was unethical, unprofessional and out of line. She should have addressed that at a different level,” Coetzee said.

She added that the constitution makes it compulsory for anyone to receive emergency medical attention.

Dr Mike Ramothwala, from the Limpopo department of health, endorsed the MEC's statements, saying: “The last statistics showed that 80% of women giving birth at Musina hospital are illegal Zimbabweans and SA women sometimes didn’t find beds to give birth on. We are trying to fix our healthcare system but we can never do it unless what our MEC is saying is addressed.”

Solofresh2:
The number of immigrants in that country is so alarming
Have been to South Africa before an know what am talking about

TMKsouth:


No, they don't pay tax! Do they pay tax in Nigeria?

@bolded - so you agree there are too many foreigners in SA?

TMKsouth:


Is it the whites building the roads, power, hospitals for the past 30 years?

Was it the whites the built the awesome world class infrastructure for the 2010 world cup?

.

Athemisia:

Nigerians are not the only foreigners in your country so stop referring to Nigerians Everytime you talk about foreigners.

morpheus101:


There is no question that there is an illegal foreign national issue in SA however the failure is on your government to find a way to solce the problem because your liberation government is clueless.

The MEC stated that it was necessary to have illegal foreign nationals pay for services they receive when they visit hospital as a determent. This is fair or makes common sense but as usual her delivery right in front of a sick patient is distasteful, childish, fronting, undiplomatic and pandering to the populace as your people are apt at doing.
