Health Minister Zweli Mkhize is denying that the government failed to protect consumers.

Mkhize said, “the private sector has to take the responsibility, the government has to take responsibility and everyone else as well because we have to work on the basis of everyone collaborating to say what’s the best way to protect consumers.”
