Unisa students plead with Nzimande to deal with maladministration allegations
“Communism and Marxism are in you unless things have changed,” reads a memo sent by a group referring to themselves as students at Unisa to Higher Education, Science and Innovation Minister Blade Nzimande’s office.
In their memorandum to Nzimande, which City Press has seen, students said they were concerned about the alleged maladministration of public funds and bad publicity “our beloved university is suffering from”. “The issue of ‘mission drift’ has massive implications for the financial sustainability and future of Unisa. It also has materially significant implications for government for both subsidy and student financial aid support – as we have seen at the start of the 2020 academic year when segments of the student community made demands for near full-time equivalent National Financial Aid Scheme support from government.
“Any mishandling of public funds should be reported to avert taxpayers from carrying a burden of tax and VAT hikes. Honourable Minister, we took our time and watched older videos of yourself; we must indicate that you were vocal, resolute and a fighter and we believe that nothing has changed. Communism and Marxism are in you unless things have changed.“We thereby conclude by a plea and we wish to say to your office that intervention to save Unisa is of importance.
