The MEC responsible for education in the Northern Cape, Zolile Monakai expressed his gratitude to the MERSETA  for the 210 milion investment made by the entity. The launch of this investment was officiated today earlier today.  A total of 11 schools in the province will be beneficiaries of this investment from which three schools in the ZF MNgcawu district namely high schools Duinevld, Saul Damon and Daniekskuil highschool will receive technical equipment. Monakali said through this investment learners will be empowered and prepared for further development and studies. He alluded that equipment needed to execute technical subjects is expensive as the expenses of single machine can amount to 50 thousand rand.  Monakali said that he is hopeful that the relationship between the northern cape provincial government and the merseta will extend to the future to reach the National Development Plan for 2030. The investment made by the merseta is believed to produce skills that align with the job market skills of the Northern Cape.
