Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi is joined in the studio by Dr. Athalia Shabangu, a Social Work Manager from the Department of Social Development, to discuss the nominations for a new board for the Central Drug Authority (CDA). The Minister of Social Development, Ms. Nokuzola Sisisi Tolashe, has issued a public call for these nominations, inviting qualified individuals to aid in South Africa's fight against substance abuse.
