The Minister of Higher Education and Training, Dr Nobuhle Nkabane, has taken note of recent developments at the University of South Africa (UNISA), including the alleged suspension of senior officials and ongoing concerns about governance and financial management.
The Minister wishes to assure all stakeholders that the Department is closely monitoring the situation and will be engaging with the university and supporting it in addressing any governance and operational shortcomings.
The Minister emphasises the importance of protecting the integrity of institutions of higher learning, upholding due process, and ensuring that the rights of all parties, including whistleblowers, are respected. UNISA remains a vital institution in our post-school education system, and the Department is committed to working with all stakeholders to ensure it continues to fulfil its mandate effectively.
