NATIONAL NEWS - KwaZulu-Natal premier Willies Mchunu reportedly fainted while during his State of the Province Address on Wednesday.
The 70-year-old premier asked to pause his speech and for the speaker to give the podium to the leader of government business Sihle Zikalala.
“I have a challenge,” he said before losing his balance as he was stepping off the stage and collapsed.
People could be heard praying in tongues, while others started shouting “in the name of Jesus!”
He was being attended to by medical officials after being taken out of the venue.
Former president Jacob Zuma was also in attendance.
