Dear Nobuhle Nkabane,

I would like to congratulate you as Minister of Higher Education. I am happy with this appointment, first as a woman, second as a young minister and as an educated woman in government. I hope there will be more appointments like this, that are not political in nature but someone who brings something to the table and who can make changes to the system.

We are looking at you to revamp the education system please. Young people are discouraged due to no jobs after finishing their studies. I hope the other professionals in the higher education sector heed your call to work together to transform education for the better. I would like the opportunity to serve under your ministry.

I wish you all the best.
Nkateko Traore
