Sasco calls for immediate removal of Minister Nobuhle Nkabane

--:--
The South African Students Congress (SASCO) has joined growing calls for the immediate dismissal of Higher Education Minister Nobuhle Nkabane, accusing her of failing to manage core responsibilities, including NSFAS. SASCO has criticised the state of the ministry, NSFAS, and the SETA. This marks the third formal call for her removal this week, following similar demands by the EFF and DA. Nkabane is also facing allegations of corruption and misleading Parliament over the controversial appointment of a SETA board reportedly stacked with ANC loyalists. Phemelo speaks to Sasco Spokesperson, Thuto Mashile.
