The UN is calling for urgent action after 9 women were found dead over 2 months in South Africa. Meanwhile, President Ramaphosa has constituted a team to investigate the killings. South Africa's women, youth and children with disabilities minister, Sindisiwe Chikunga, spoke to Focus On Africa about the work of the multi-sectoral team, why anti-gender-based violence activities have limited funding and why police are telling women, for now, to jog in groups. #southafrica #soutafricanews #focusonafrica Subscribe: http://bit.ly/subscribetoafrica Website: https://www.bbc.com/africa Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bbcnewsafrica/ Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/bbcafrica/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bbcafrica/
