SOUTH AFRICA: Two employees of the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) have been suspended for performing a ritual in their office. The decision was made following the discovery of the incident on CCTV cameras on April 12.

In the footage, one of the men is seen holding what appears to be a snake, while the other is seen sprinkling liquid around the office. Colleagues were shocked to find needles and what seemed to be muti smeared at their workstations the next day.

SASSA spokesperson in Mpumalanga, Senzeni Ngubeni, stated, “We have found out that two of our officials were involved in the incident. As it stands, they have been suspended. Investigation into their conduct is underway.”

“We have arranged with the municipality to use the community hall while we clean and fumigate the office,” Ngubeni added. “Members of the public have been informed to use the community hall.”
