Show Notes
University of Johannesburg students face severe hardship due to delayed allowances from the Mining Qualifications Authority, with payments stalled since February. The situation has led to students resorting to desperate measures, such as pawning belongings and borrowing from loan sharks, to make ends meet. Despite assurances of timely payments, students remain skeptical, with academic performance suffering and stress levels soaring. The CEO of the authority maintains that payments will be made on schedule, but students hope for a resolution before their dreams are further derailed.
