South African Students Federation slams Nkabane over NSFAS, calls for transparency

# The South African Students Federation has condemned Higher Education minister Nobuhle Nkabane over her inconsistent handling of student grievances and National Student Financial Aid Scheme issues. The federation criticised the unexplained withdrawal of a public statement acknowledging their memorandum and questioned the merits behind NSFAS board appointments. It demands transparency, meaningful engagement, and a concrete action plan. It vows to continue mobilising students until the minister delivers decisive leadership and accountability in the higher education sector.
