Minister of Basic Education Angie Motshekga has breached a court order issued in August last year, reviewed in this year, instructing her to fill teaching and support posts in the Eastern Cape.

Schools in Limpopo are still reporting that they have not received their full complement of textbooks in the second quarter of the school year.

DA MEC of Basic Education Annette Lovermore said it is simply unacceptable that a Minister is responsible for the apex priority in this country.

Lovermore added that it is a very sad day when Minister Motshekga and her team has to be taken to court to be compelled to deliver desks, textbooks and to deliver teachers to school.
