The Democratic Alliance in Limpopo has called for Education Minister
Angie Motshekga to break her three week silence on chronic textbook shortages
in Limpopo .
Since the Democratic Alliance uncovered a
Polokwane warehouse stacked with 1000’s of books on 6 February, not a single
word has been heard from the Minister.
DA Provincial Leader Desiree Van Der Walt
said this silence cannot continue now that a shortage of 42 000 books in Limpopo has
been confirmed by the Federation of School Governing Bodies of South Africa.
Van Der Walt said last week the Democratic
Alliance requested a roundtable discussion with the department but they never
responded.
Today media reports quoted the
Education Department Spokesperson Panyaza Lesufi as saying there is a shortage
of textbooks in Limpopo .
Van Der Walt added that they
want the department to public apologize for them liars.
