"Angie must apologise for racist remarks " Equal Education

Equal Education says Basic Education Minister, Angie Motshekga should apologise publicly for a "racist" statement she made last week.

The organisation says the Minister has refused to discuss her statement in which she said EE was a "group of white adults organising black African children with half-truths".

She was reacting to EE's announcement that it was taking her to court for breaching an agreement to publish the minimum norms and standards for school infrastructure by the 15th of May.

The minister said the re-drafted norms and standards would take at least six months to complete, and the matter is expected to be heard in the Bhisho High Court on the 11th of July.
