Omongikazi sebebaleke ekilinika yeSilikwe besithi bahlukuluzwa yimikhobo osekudale ukuthi izakhamizi zibhekane lodubo lokufinyelela ezempilakahle.
Omongikazi beSilikwe kubikwa sebelesikhathi behlukuluzwa yimikhobo le osekudale ukuthi labo baphume baphele kulikiliniki.
Kumaviki amabili adlulileyo, inkokheli zomdabu kanye lezakhamizi zeSilikwe eGwanda North esabelweni seMatabeleland South, zabiza abezinkonzo ukuthi bezekhipha limkhobo kodwa kubikwa kukhona owabalekayo njalo kusukela lelolanga omongi kubikwa bebengasabuquthi ubuthongo osekudale ukuthi basuke bayehlala edolobheni leGwanda.
Sixoxe lokhansila kaWard 2 eSilikwe, uNkosikazi Zwelibanzi Mpofu, osilandisele ngesisusa saloludaba.
“Iproblem ekhona eSilikwe yikuthi amanurse abike ukuthi alohlupho lokuthi kabalali kulomsindo owenzakalayo phezulu kwamazenge, lokuhwayahwaya okwenzakalayo emawindini, kuthi kungenzakala into enjengaleyo kuyabekuphakathi kobusuku kusekufika ithunzi, ithunzi lakhona lingafika babanjwa yibuthongo bathi bangajumeka bathi bayaphaphama ekuseni bavuke ingani ngabantu abakade belele labesilisa kodwa bona bengalalanga labesilisa.”
Ngemva kokuzwa lokhu ukhansila uthi watshela osobhuku bavumelana ukuthi kucelwe abazinkonzo ukuthi bezothandaza bexotshe limimoya okudala ukuthi kwenziwa umlindelo ngabezinkonzo njalo omunye wabomongikazi watholakala elenyoka.

UKhansila ugcizelele wathi laloba inyoka yakhitshwa udubo lwemikhobo luqhubekele phambili okudale ukuthi omongi labo bacele ezinyaweni.
Omongi bethekelela kulikiliniki ngoLwesithathu kuphela njalo uMaMpofu uthi behluleka ukwelapha zonke izigulane ngalelolanga ngoba ziyabe zizinengi.
Induna yeMatshetsheni uMbiko Masuku ikhangelelwe ukuthi iyehlangana lezakhamizi zeSilikwe ngoMvulo ekuseni ukuze kuboniswane ngalokhu osekumele kwenziwe ukuze ikiliniki isebenze ngenjayelo.
Ekuqaleni kwalonyaka izakhamizi zeLumene zaxotsha omunye umbalisikazi zimethesa umlandu wokufundisa abantwana ubuthakathi ngemva kokuba kubizwe abaporofethi.
UMnu. Thandeko Zinti Mnkandla yingcwethi kwezamasiko njalo ungumfundisi kubandla leMethodist uthi indaba ezifana lalezi ziyinsindabaphenduli njalo izakhamizi akumelanga zikhombane ngeminwe.
“Udubo yikuthi kwesinye isikhathi zicina zikhutha onguye ngoba indlela zokumbamba kwesinye isikhathi zicina zingenelwa yingxabano lezondano phakathi kwabantu kodwa nxa bekhona laba abalamandla yokukukhupha yindaba bengakukhuphi bakutshise bengaxabanisanga abantu benze lokhu okuzakwenza ukuthi abantu bahlale ngcono kubuhlungu ukuthi ikilinika yeSilikwe izavaliswa yizinto ezingalethi ingqubelaphambili ebantwini.”
