Gauteng education MEC Panyaza Lesufi on Friday used the achievements of the province's matric pupils as an opportunity to criticise One SA Movement leader Mmusi Maimane.

While Gauteng obtained a 82.8% pass rate in these exams, this was a drop from the 83.8% obtained last year.The province's head of department, Edward Mosuwe, said this achievement did not come without hurdles.

In a technical report delivered by the province in Boksburg on Friday, the department said threats of a fourth Covid-19 wave, load-shedding and leakage of question papers were other hurdles pupils had to deal with. The department said it did all it could to address these concerns, including holding formal engagements with Eskom to ensure there was no load-shedding on the days the exams were written on computer and a second session date being set aside to accommodate affected pupils.

The Tshwane south district again proved to be the best performing district, obtaining an 89.9% total pass rate.

The art of stooping way too low, engaging in off color, condescending form of address bordering on unprofessional Street mentality: addressing an entire husband, some children's father as 'Mjita' simply because he raises questions. 'Could Panyaza Lesufi be called Mjita?'
