Uncaring ANC knew about terrible conditions at Bopelong Psychiatric Hospital – Premier’s “shock” is wilful ignorance
22 February 2019
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in North West is taken by surprise at Premier Job Mokgoro’s lack of hands-on knowledge about the huge challenges in this province.
The DA will now require a full investigation into the tenders, contracts and the management plan of the Bophelong Psychiatric Hospital in Mafikeng.
Mokgoro is quoted in recent media reports that he was “shocked” after he visited the Bophelong Psychiatric Hospital – as if he were never informed about the terrible state of the facility.
We take his sudden concern with a pinch of salt and deem his visit as window dressing prior to the election. This hospital is on his doorstep and this is pure ignorance to deny any knowledge of the problems there.
