ANC Admits to screwing up the Health Sector, Zuma incites violence

While addressing hundreds of workers at May Day celebrations in Curries Fountain in Durban, ANC Secretary-General Gwede Mantashe says the tripartite alliance must accept and acknowledge that South Africa's health system is facing a crisis.

Mantashe, who is also the ANC chairperson, says the recent incident involving the outbreak of klebsiella at Prince Mshiyeni Hospital is one of the challenges facing the health system.

Jacob Zuma has been welcomed by thousands of workers singing his trademark song, Umshini Wami, as he arrived for the main Workers' Day event at Orkney's James Motlatsi Stadium in North West.
