Malema calls for Nzimande's resignation
Updated | By Celumusa Zulu
Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has called for the resignation of Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande.
His remarks follow a similar demand by organisation OUTA, which also wants the removal of NSFAS Chairperson Ernest Khoza.
It claims to have in its possession audio recordings allegedly linking the pair and other individuals to financial mismanagement and corruption at the scheme.
Malema addressed the issue while speaking at a media briefing in Durban yesterday, ahead of the EFF’s manifesto launch in February.
"The EFF is affirmed in our long-held view that at the centre of the collapse of higher education sector is Blade Nzimande who has now been exposed through leaked voice recordings for having secret meetings with service providers.
"Nzimande has been anti-students ever since he was placed in that department for factional reasons has established it as his personal wallet. Blade Nzimande must resign and he must resign now."
