CAPE TOWN - Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande has projected this year's National Student Financial Aid Scheme budget at R47.6 billion.During a press briefing, he estimated that 900,000 tertiary students could benefit from the fund for the 2023 academic year.

Once a communist but now capitalist

How much of these bursaries are going to wards the comrades kids and friends kids? How much is going into their own pockets and ghost kids?

I also want a bursary....I won't study, I will fail and I won't have to pay the money back....way to go ANC!!

Did you know that these students bever have to repay the money and get about R5000 pocket money per month after fees have been paid. Even if they fail...

Is the Yellow communist still alive, yah neh, money is powerful

But how many actually qualify and get jobs?

They will take the money and never finish their studies.

Maybe only 100 000 are valid applications meeting the criteria. There is so much fraud in this thing.

I don’t understand the role of Dr Nzimande in the Education system. He never visit the DHET to address challenges faced, he does not visit Private colleges to see if they really do what’s necessary for students. He does not enforce power and law to close non complaint colleges.

But I thought Zuma implemented free education for all? That’s what his brainwashed fans keep singing about 🤷🏻‍♂️

I wonder what the impact would be if deserving and promising small businesses were also given that much a year as grants. I am referring to this in an ideal world where cadres do not exist.
