Context: A three-year-old boy called Unecebo Mboteni died after drowning in a pit toilet, at a pre-school in Mdantsane near East London in the Eastern Cape. In 2024 , Eastern Cape still has over 500 schools that use pit toilets. Equal Education is the least of our problems MEC.

@AldrinSampear And lately moved to other qualifications.... In the medical field we have surgeon, paediatrician etc who are not considered as "Dr"... In the UK the highest civilian honour given to mostly "male" are given the title Sir Lewis Hamilton, Sir Alex Ferguson etc In South Africa
@AldrinSampear "Dr" is derived from the latin word docere which means to teach it's only recently when they started awarding medical "students" the title in their academic fields.Dr Esther Mahlangu was given the title because she teaches art, Dr Patrice Motsepe(Ubuntu), Dr BE Lekganyanne(peace)
@AldrinSampear They no different from the Medical Practitioners they also stole that term. Actually being a doctor was only reserved for those who contributed to new knowledge or human progress academically. Albert Einstein refused to be boxed up with such titles that has lost all its relevance
