DA demands answers from minister Manamela as NSFAS chaos threatens student funding

# The DA has urged Higher Education and Training minister, Buti Manamela, to clarify steps to stabilise the National Student Financial Aid Scheme amid growing chaos. This after former board chairperson Karen Stander resigned over claims of bullying, racism, and intimidation, while acting CEO Waseem Carrim seeks legal advice. The DA’s Delmaine Christians warns that ongoing instability could delay or block next year’s student funding for tuition and accommodation. Christians calls for a full investigation.
