🚨 MANAMELA GETS GRILLED! Till he bites his tongue 😂

Minister Manamela appointed advisors without Finance Minister approval, then @SihleLonzi turned the Higher Education Committee into an oral exam 😂

The questioning got so intense, Manamela looked like he was trying to bite his tongue before the tongue bit back. 😭

This is one of the most hard working committee in parliament... Akudlalwa LA...

[Sihle Lonzi @SihleLonzi]

Alongside addressing the NSFAS Top Up, which will leave many students with DEBT, the student accommodation middleman schemes, today, we will ask Buti Manamela’s Administrator, Hlengani Mathebula, why he paid his Advisors through private companies rather than normal payroll.

Moreover, the NSFAS Act is clear that remuneration of both the Administrator and his Advisors must be approved by the Finance Minister.

We now know that such approval does not exist!

The looting at NSFAS will need a Madlanga Commission of its own. Buti Manamela must be stopped!

[Sihle Lonzi @SihleLonzi]

In anticipation of tomorrow’s meeting with NSFAS, we have written to demand an explanation for the legal basis for the remuneration of Advisors to the NSFAS Administrator.

Instead of being paid directly, private companies invoiced NSFAS for July (attached).

We were told that the NSFAS Administrator, Hlengani Mathebula, was brought in to restore good governance and ensure that public resources meant to support students are properly spent.

Instead of removing the wasteful middleman schemes at NSFAS, we are now seeing the introduction of even more third-party/middleman arrangements!

When we say there is enough money to fund ALL students in South Africa, we are not hallucinating. The day we put an end to the STEALING at NSFAS, will be the day students in South Africa experience true liberation.

Let’s meet tomorrow!

The 104th Wits SRC Administration responds to the ongoing NSFAS accommodation crisis and its impact on students at Wits and across the country.

The crisis is national. The response must be national.

On this historic day, the 104th SRC Administration honours the women of Wits and all who identify as she/her. 🌸

From Winnie Madikizela-Mandela to Mamphela Ramphele and generations of women who challenged exclusion, women have shaped struggles for freedom and transformation.
