Dr. Blade Nzimande, the Minister of Higher Education in South Africa, is facing accusations of accepting bribes from NSFAS service providers in exchange for tenders and safeguarding. These accusations came to light when the Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse exposed covert voice recordings, sparking a nationwide outcry. Despite the political pressure and demands for his discharge, Nzimande maintains that the charges are part of a counterattack against his efforts to eliminate corruption within the NSFAS. The ongoing controversy has plunged South Africa’s political scene into a state of turmoil, with the nation anxiously waiting for justice to prevail.
