She further said that the politicians should die in their own countries and hospitals.
She mentioned that no politician should consult in another country. Ramathuba also remarked that the healthcare system in Africa is not designed for Africans.
According to Times LIVE, Ramathuba said that moving from villages to urban areas created healthcare problems reeling under the pressure of sharing borders with Zimbabwe, Botswana and Mozambique.
She observed that a lack of collaboration with countries in the Southern African Democratic Countries (SADC) region is making matters worse.
