EWN reports that according to Higher Education Deputy Minister Buti Manamela, University of South Africa (Unisa) students will be able to register for the 2018 academic year, despite a National Education Health and Allied Workers' Union (Nehawu) wage strike.
Manamela visited the university on Wednesday and was assured that new and returning students would have a chance to register online. “The assurance I’ve received from both Nehawu and the university is that every student will be given an opportunity to register,” Manamela indicated. Meantime, the union said it would continue to strike. Nehawu spokesperson Khaya Xaba indicated that no agreement had been reached between management and their members.
