The Inkatha Freedom Party says the report that a thirty-eight year (38) old man from Mahlabathini was allegedly gnawed to death by gigantic rats infesting the Nkonjeni Hospital is the clear indication that sick patients in government hospital are open to rodents to feed on.
"The patient's nose and lips had been badly mutilated in the rat attack. This was not done deliberately or intentionally by any human being.

This situation raises serious concerns about the cleanliness in provincial hospitals in particular Nkonjeni Hospital," said IFP KZN Provincial Spokesperson on Health, Mrs Ncamisile Nkwanyana MPL.
