Survivors of forced sterilisation in room speaking about the impact of the procedure on their lives, young women only discovering that their wombs have been removed after giving birth, no legal remedies, no justice, they detail the horrific experiences…😭😭Bongekile Msibi gave birth to her first child in 2005 and only found out 11 years later that her uterus was removed without her knowledge.

In the video below, Bongekile Msibi speaks out about her struggles with the Department of Health since finding out that she was sterilised without her knowledge 11 years ago.It’s not just Msibi’s rights, the Commission found during its probe that 48 women were sterilised without their consent or knowledge.

In the video below, the Commission for Gender Equality says at least 48 women have been forcefully sterilised at public health facilities in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng.Commission chairperson Tamara Mathebula says they will also engage with the National Health Department, the Health Professions Council as well as the Nursing Council to initiate their own investigations into the findings and bring those involved to account.

“Our recommendations are binding if we offer or issue recommendations and people don’t follow we do follow-ups to actually take the matter further. So consequences definitely will be there if the department of health, HPSCA and the SA Nursing Council don’t follow through on those recommendations. We are also seeking some redress for the victims.”

Employees implicated must be fired and be removed from the South African Nursing Council, they are not fit to work in the Health industry 😠
