Dineo Ranaka, a media celebrity, stated on social media that she was battling with mental health concerns and was contemplating suicide. Her sister Manaka Ranaka reported on social media that the family was attending to Dineo. According to further reports, the Kaya FM personality was admitted to a mental health center.
On Saturday, June 3, it was reported that Dineo had “discharged herself” from the facility after a verbal altercation with a hospital employee. Tweeps have now attacked the healthcare worker in a series of tweets.
Various outlets reported on Wednesday that media star Dineo Ranaka was admitted to a mental health facility in Pretoria after having suicide thoughts.
“She appreciated all the messages she has received from everyone. She hasn’t been able to respond to everyone, but she is fighting. She will be okay. Dineo is a fighter, everybody knows that,” Manaka Ranaka said about her sister.
Just a few days later, it was reported that the media personality had left the facility following a squabble with one of the healthcare workers.
“Someone was on the phone so Dineo thought that person was taking a picture and she confronted him.
“Then the boy said to Dineo shut up and then they had a confrontation which ended up in him saying she must not take out her frustrations on him,” a source allegedly told Sunday World.
The news has upset social media users who have slammed the healthcare worker.
“The issue is the hospital worker. How dare he say that she mustn’t take out her issues on him!?? That is a mental health facility. Everyone there has issues. It’s not up to him to judge! Where is the empathy? He wanted to ‘show’ Dineo. That entire statement reeks of bias,” wrote one person.
