DA criticizes Minister Manamela's appointments of allegedly corrupt officials to lead SETAs, demanding reversals.

The Democratic Alliance (DA) in South Africa is criticizing Minister Buti Manamela's appointments of three individuals with alleged corruption ties to lead Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs). The DA demands the appointments be reversed and calls for independent, non-political figures instead. Manamela defends the moves, saying they aim to address governance failures like procurement irregularities and board instability at the SETAs.
