Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande has told parliament’s portfolio committee on higher education that he will present a comprehensive proposal to the cabinet on how to tackle funding of university students - in June.

The minister first made the announcement that the cabinet had asked his department to work on a framework on how to deal with student funding early in March. He told the committee on Tuesday 23 March that he will establish a task team consisting of people with relevant expertise to guide him on what needs to happen with student funding, including the missing middle.

He said this is being done to see if the government can “urgently” do something to assist the students with genuine cases. He said he would take the data to the cabinet, who would decide what to do next. Nzimande would not be drawn on making any commitments about what the government would do with the information.

He's going to do the magic: finding money that doesn't exist and will therefore be stolen from some other vital department , organisation or cause.

This minister must make up his mind if he's a 'communist' or not. His approach towards student's cry is very unpopular

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂
