TAC members to lay corruption charges against FS health MEC | News Article

Bloemfontein - A group of health workers is singing and demonstrating outside the Bloemfontein Magistrate's court where more than a hundred of their colleagues are facing charges of gathering illegally.

A total of 130 community healthcare workers were arrested during a night vigil at Bophelo House, the Free State health headquarters, in Bloemfontein on July 10.
 
Their lawyers are currently attempting to negotiate a deal with the National Prosecuting Authority. 
 
OFM News’ Lerato Lelia is at the court.

Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) Free State chairperson Sello Mokhalipi earlier told OFM News the TAC is going ahead with its 'Fix Free State Health Campaign’.
 
The TAC is calling for Health MEC Benny Malakoane to be fired and insists government must come up with a long-term plan for a sustainable health department in the province.
