The Ministry of Health and Wellness (MoH&W) has temporarily closed Extension 2 clinic.

This comes after a female nurse was raped whilst on duty at the clinic early Sunday morning. In a press release from the ministry today, the permanent secretary Ruth Maphorisa stated that services at the clinic were temporarily suspended until further notice. She however urged the members of the public who normally use that clinic to use nearby government health facilities such as Bontleng, Phase 2, Gaborone West, Lesirane and Nkoyaphiri clinics. 

When commenting about the incident on Monday, the Minister of Health and Wellness Dr Alfred Madigele said the incident happened when the nurse was on a health break at 4am that fateful morning. He explained that doctors saw her the same morning in the clinic and that the incident was reported to the police who responded promptly to the crime scene.
