DEPUTY PRESIDENT’S DOCTOR RULES OUT FOOD POISONING AFTER HE COLLAPSED

Meanwhile, the office of the Deputy President confirmed on Sunday that Paul Mashatile collapsed due to dehydration caused by excessive heat, dismissing earlier suggestions of food poisoning.

Mashatile had mentioned food poisoning during a speech at Tshwane University of Technology the day before his collapse. However, his acting spokesperson, Keith Khoza, clarified that the medical examination revealed no signs of poisoning.

“The doctor who examined the deputy president never mentioned food poisoning,” Khoza told Jacaranda FM, adding, “We found that the reason he collapsed was dehydration as a result of extreme heat.”

Despite Mashatile’s earlier claims, Khoza emphasised that the deputy president is in good health.

“He is fine. He was thoroughly checked by the doctor, and he is back to his normal mood,” Khoza stated.
