Lihle Mbele whose been struggling to get funding from Nsfas is out to be drowning in debts today due to no assistance when applying for the financial scheme since 2018, with hopes that he will be achieving to change his family’s financial status.

“I have been trying to get financial assistance from Nsfas countless times since 2018 and I even tried getting assistance from financial offices at Nelson Mandela University they also failed to get me admitted countless times”.

Despite the family living off his father’s pension money, he is still well-focused and a dedicated straight-A student. Mbele has been bending at all costs since 2018 after he was admitted to the university.

“I have been performing very well since in 2018 I did a higher certificate in business studies and received awards for top academic student, in 2019-2021 enrolled for a diploma in management and obtained it with a cum Laude.”

Lihle has tried to look for employment, but due to his debt to the university, he has failed to get employment. He’s been using the completion letters given to him to seek employment, but because of his debt companies have failed to take him in as they want his original certificate.

“I have been trying to get employment, but when an opportunity arises, they want my certificate and I only have a completion letter, it does not help. I understand there is a high rate of unemployment”.

The dysfunctional of student financial assistance Nsfas has not stopped Mbele from aiming for his Advanced Diploma in Technical and vocational teaching, which he plans to use so that he can be able to find work to pay up his fees.

At this point, Mbele is one of many students who are in varsity with no funding, in his case he owes the institution R99999.50 in total.

According to the Bureau for Economic Research, households in South Africa may experience some relief in the upcoming months as the price of food and fuel is expected to decline (BER). In a report published on Monday, August 8, analysts at the BER noticed a downward trend in oil prices that, if it continues, will result in a significant reduction in fuel prices by the end of the month. READ ALSO:Boks beat the All Blacks "Brent crude oil's price fell 13.7% for the upcoming month. Since July, the oil price has been affected by concerns about a recession.

Sihle Zikalala has been succeeded as the new premier of KwaZulu-Natal by Nomusa Dube-Ncube. Since the start of democracy in 1994, she becomes the province's first female premier. READ ALSO:Divisions in Cosatu ahead of elective conference At a Monday morning press conference, the newly elected provincial leadership officially announced Dube-appointment. Ncube's Prior to the weekend, three people had begun to gain attention as potential competitors for the position made vacant by Zikalala's departure last week, but Dube-Ncube stood out the most. Mbali Fraser and Amanda Bani were further candidates. Dube-Ncube served as South Africa's ambassador to the Czech Republic and has had a fascinating political career inside the ranks of the ANC, which is currently in power.

Divisions in Cosatu ahead of elective conference

August 8, 2022

Deep divides among a number of Cosatu affiliates, the largest trade union federation in the nation, raise the possibility that a contentious race for leadership positions may break out when the group conducts its elective conference next month. Large affiliates of the federation, particularly those in the public sector, are allegedly beset by factionalism that hinders efforts to bring them together in support of those who will run the organization after September. READ ALSO:One person dies in Kagiso protest The leadership succession is traditionally managed via the federation's central executive committee and public sector union organizations like the joint mandatory committee (JMC) to avoid ugly battles that could destabilize the organization. Zingiswa Losi, the president of Cosatu, may seem to be in a strong position to maintain her job, but it has recently come to light that she is facing opposition. Additionally, it has come to light that Bheki Ntshalintshali, the federation's general secretary, was the target of a significant lobbying effort. If that were to occur, he would become the only Cosatu boss since the federation's founding in 1985 to be dismissed after completing one term. Louis Thipe, the second deputy president of Cosatu, is said to have declared she plans to resign. Louis Thipe, the second deputy president of Cosatu, is said to have declared she plans to resign. Freda Oosthuysen, the national treasurer of the federation, is expected to keep her job after being strongly supported by her affiliate, the influential Southern African Clothing and Textile Workers Union (Sactwu). The SA Democratic Teachers Union (Sadtu), one of Cosatu's largest affiliates, is adamant that the leadership that emerges from the congress should reflect the balance between unions in the public and private sectors. “The leadership should...
