“It is a shame that public funds are wasted on inflated prices and fees by service providers, while legitimate concerns by civil society and people who are directly affected by poor government decisions, in this case, students who rely on financial aid are ignored by those in power," said Outa's head of investigation Rudie Heyneke.
"The actions of executives at higher education institutions have a huge impact on the youth and the future of our country and should always be above suspicion," he added.
