MEC for Infrastructure Development in Gauteng Jacob Mamabolo briefed the media on the report compiled by independent law firm Adams and Adams Attorneys on the reason for the collapse.


The roof collapsed due to overloading.


Mamabolo says the contractor was negligent in piling up stones, which led to the collapse of the roof.


Another contractor has subsequently been appointed to complete the project. 


JacarandaFM News spoke to some of the patients at the hospital.
