The democratic alliance has called Higher education minister Blade Nzimande out for not delivering on a commitment to South African students.

Democratic Alliance’s spokesperson Samkelo Mgobozi said Nzimande’s cancellation of his briefing on where the extra R2.7 billion needed to address higher education funding would be sourced yesterday demonstrated disinterest and skewed priorities.

Samkelo Ngobozi explained “we urge the minister to re-schedule his briefing and to explain to South Africa as a matter of urgency, what his plan is to address the funding shortfall at Universities.”

Nzimande remains a man without a plan on higher education. This needs to change, and soon, if young South Africans are to be equipped to pursue a better future Ngobozi concluded.
