The minister of basic education Angie Motshekga working hard to restore her department's image and perception that has been distorted to the public since earlier this year. This is the results for the department failing to deliver text books for basic education in Limpopo Province. It is rather annoying in the country that is developing to have school that the department fails to deliver books in this time of the year, hence this should have been done right away in the beginning of the year to ensure the better education for all South Africans.

- I am really surprised as to why such a failure happen only in Limpopo?
- Is the department of basic education working effectively at Limpopo in particular?
- Why did the department fail to take into account this matter earlier?
- Are they going to achieve the restoration for their image in quite a short run?
The minister is currently having discussions with the Limpopo school's principals in order to remedy the situation. However, it is too late now to look for solutions since the year is long gone. The image for the Minister is damaged and she is regarded as incompetent to the position by failing to ensure that all schools are equipped with all necessary materials in time without any delay.
I put the blame on her because is her duty as minister of education to make sure that books are delivered early in schools. lEARNERS IN LIMPOPO are left behind because of her.
ReplyDeleteWhy such problem only experinced in few certain provinces?. At North-West the very same problem is pressurising secondary schools..
ReplyDeletei have to agree with maverlous, its all angie's fault, now this kids wont do well on their exams because of her carelesness.
ReplyDeleteyes ANGIE MOTSHEKGA should admit to the textbook crisis even though she might blame the distributors she the one who must make sure that all the schools have their textbook before schools reopen
ReplyDeleteThe minister is indeed incompetent, this saddens me alot and I think some one else whose well prepared to take her position, should do so, without question.
ReplyDeleteLearners need text-books, they value them,they value education this text-books crisis has a negative impact on learners in Limpopo. I think she does not derserve her postion as the Minister of education. Who are you without education?
ReplyDeleteit shuld not only be the minister to take the blame but the department of education at limpopo to becouse they also did notheing to make sure that the books arrived in time as fot the minister she should just accept her faults nd step down because it look like the seat is to hot for her
ReplyDeleteShe's the minister but it all started with the provincial government.Limpopo government has failed the province and she must not be only one to be blamed for this mess of textbooks.
ReplyDeleteTo answer to this question Why such problem only experinced in few certain provinces,the problem is in the administraion the Minister is just a face,even if we look what is happening to government no one is likely doing his/her job and hope Thuli Madonsela continue to her job as a public proctetor the government system is poor.
ReplyDeleteHB, the problem in on the administration as trot says,not to the minister. but that doesnt mean that the minister must sit down and relax about this issue,she needs to act and take actions as a minister.
ReplyDeleteFor me Angie is not to be blamed because she cannot be always be running around checking if textbooks have been delivered or not. My question is why is this problem only at Limpopo if Minister Angie Motshekga is to blame for the textbook saga?
ReplyDeleteWhere is Angie Motshekgas Public relations Manager? she would not have to struggle with reputation management if she had a Public relations manager. She is to be blamed but then again, lrts put the blame aside, what is going to happen to the 70% of students who have not recieved textbooks? are we going to have free pass rates?
ReplyDeletewell,well,well...the problem arouse from the national government to the sub-provicial government. we can,either attribute this problem to the department as a whole not to assign a blame only to the Minister but to the national government at large. This problem is now spreading arround the country whereby, some schools received sotho books instead of their language of learning (english). the department of education must come up with solution to the problem in order to avoid the very same delay in future.
