Often times we look to the west to impose sanctions. South Africa just allowed Ghanaians e-visa free access to SA - it should be revoked and I'm gonna lobby for it. We no longer like Ghanians and they'll be subjected to the same xenophobic hatred they impose on the lgbtq community in ghana. Homophobic wailers can wail below. If you hate gays, we also hate you. |

So the moral of this story is SA women are ashamed of dating Nigerians because they're taboo (drug dealers, scammers, unethical). She was trying to get out of a bind because SA women that date Nigerians fast become social outcasts. |

Two white Bengal tigers, kept as pets on a property in Impala Park (Johannesburg), were relocated to a NSPCA-accredited wildlife facility in the Free State province of South Africa on February 20. The tigers made headlines in 2021 after staff at a crèche just behind the property spotted one of them. At the time, Boksburg SPCA manager Vicky Finnemore said their hands were tied. They had done an inspection and found the tigers in good condition, although they questioned whether their enclosure was adequately secure. Finnemore explained that owning a tiger as a pet is legal, and owners don’t need permits to keep these wild animals, but they must have permits for transportation. “Transportation permits are to transport the animal, for instance, if they want to take it to the vet or anywhere for any reason,” Finnemore added. MOVED TO SANCTUARY According to the NSPCA’s Jacques Peacock, the Boksburg SPCA proactively and persistently worked with the owner, which led to the animals being taken into the care of the NSPCA. In a media statement, Peacock said the tigers were “sentenced to a barren, urban enclosure; trapped in a concrete jungle in suburbia, without a speck of grass or a tree in sight. With no freedom to express normal behaviour, the tigers became objects of human gratification”. “The NSPCA’s Wildlife Protection Unit, in collaboration with the Boksburg SPCA inspectorate and renowned big cat veterinarian Dr Peter Caldwell, attended to the Boksburg property to safely sedate and transport the tigers. “The operation proceeded smoothly, and the tigers were relocated to a sanctuary providing a habitat conducive to their well-being,” he said. “Their release was magnificent and heartbreaking – with the tigers taking excited leaps to freedom while interacting with grass for the first time. “Their bounds were filled with curiosity for their new haven, where they can live the rest of their lives free from concrete and confinement.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhmY7kwIrdM?feature=shared The NSPCA extended its sincere congratulations and gratitude to the Boksburg SPCA for their proactive stance in initiating this crucial step towards ending the confinement of exotic wild species in South Africa. CRÉCHE NEXT DOOR According to the crèche owner at the time, who asked to remain anonymous, she noticed one of the tigers looking over the wall on September 23, 2021. “I got the shock of my life. We have been running the early childhood development centre here for quite some time but were unaware that there are tigers in the neighbourhood. We feel the children’s lives are in danger because the property perimeter wall is not high enough to prevent the animals from jumping over,” she alleged. “We can’t allow someone’s child to get injured on our watch,” she said, indicating that authorities should look into the matter and, if anything is to be rectified, oversee it. The crèche owner believes the tigers could endanger the children and anyone in the vicinity. “There are about four ECD centres and an old age home close to this property,” she said. The Boksburg Advertiser is trying to get comments from the owners of the tigers and the crèche. 1 Like 1 Share

Health / South African Doctors Earn 3 Times More Than Those In Nigeria & Kenya by MzansiCoolio: 6:34pm On Feb 23 |
Unemployed doctors aren't the health department's only vice; those who do work in state clinics and hospitals are heavily underpaid, says the South African Medical Association (SAMA). Yet, South African government doctors earn up to three times more in a month than what some make in a year in other middle-income countries in Africa, such as Kenya and Nigeria. But while the government is scrambling to get enough money to ensure that all 694 unemployed doctors, as well as recently graduated healthcare professionals, are employed, SAMA says the country's public-sector doctors aren't paid enough. At a media briefing ahead of SAMA's annual conference in mid-February, Mzulungile Nodikida, CEO of the association, said that a study commissioned by them shows that those doctors who are already employed by provincial health departments "are earning 2015 salaries". The study found doctors are experiencing "cost-of-living pressures", but also concedes that their salaries are "above what other similar income-level countries pay their doctors". SA VS KENYA AND NIGERIA For example, in Kenya, medical interns were paid around Ksh122 000 and Ksh145 000 per month (including risk and housing allowances) according to the 2013 Commission's allowances for government employees. This works out to around R16 000 to R19 000 a month, compared to the almost R28 000 a medical intern earns monthly in South Africa that year. Similarly, an entry-level medical officer (which, in South Africa, means you have completed two years' internship and a year of community service) was paid Ksh250 000 (about R32 500) a month in Kenya from 2013, whereas their South African counterparts earned almost R62 000 per month. Salaries for doctors in Nigeria — which is experiencing a large-scale exodus of doctors — are even lower. Data from the National Salary, Income and Wages Commission in Nigeria shows that an entry-level doctor currently earns roughly NN1.8 million (about R22 000) per year, compared with someone in a similar post in South Africa getting more than three times that per month. In other words, South African medical officers earn 40.9 times more than Nigerian entry-level doctors (R900 000 vs R22 000 per year). The health department says it has not yet looked at why SAMA claims doctors should earn more. But, says Foster Mohale, spokesperson for the department, they have "had meetings [with SAMA] and we are planning to review our salary scales". SA DOCTORS' SALARY SCALES Each post in which doctors work has different levels, with a specific basic salary linked to it. For example, an entry-level medical officer would be on a Grade 1 salary, which sits at just over 900 000 rands a year (75 million naira). A medical officer is a doctor who has completed their mandatory two-year internship and a year of community service and works at a public sector hospital. After five years' experience in the position and depending on their performance, they can move on to a Grade 2 salary in that post, and earn a basic starting salary of just over R1 million (N83 million). Grade 3 medical officers earn between R1.2 million (N100 million) and R1.5 million (N125 million) a year. CHALLENGES FACING SA DOCTORS The SAMA-commissioned study suggests that money is a big issue. Like all other public servants, doctors get a salary increase every year, yet the study notes that doctors have felt "a significant erosion in income levels" over the past few years because of small increases, particularly, they say, considering "inflation as well as cost-of-living pressures". Between 2013 and 2019, yearly increases were above inflation, but in 2020 the government implemented a salary freeze to keep its wage bill in check. However, money isn't the only issue that stops doctors from working for the state. Long working hours because of too few personnel and safety concerns, both at urban and at rural facilities, were also mentioned as deterrents. More than 70% of South Africans use government facilities, yet there's only about three doctors for every 10 000 patients in the public system. This means that the doctors who work in state hospitals have a heavy workload. A 2021 study showed that working almost 60 hours a week was common, contributing to more than 80% of these workers experiencing burnout. Burnout is job-related stress which can cause exhaustion and negative reactions to patients. "Doctors in South Africa frequently contend with heavy workloads and long working hours … making maintaining a healthy work-life balance challenging," said Mzukwa. Safety at state facilities is also a problem. Between 2017 and 2022, around 200 violent incidents at public hospitals were reported across four provinces — and that's only security issues that were big enough to get noticed. In response to this week's budget announcements, SAMA says they hope enough funds will be put towards dealing with "the shortage of doctors in hospitals and the plight faced by medical practitioners where salaries have been eroded by inflation over the years". https://www.news24.com/news24/southafrica/news/sa-doctors-make-up-to-40-times-more-than-those-in-kenya-and-nigeria-20240223#:~:text=In%20other%20words%2C%20South%20African,claims%20doctors%20should%20earn%20more. 3 Likes 1 Share
