Hon Speaker, hon Deputy Minister, thank you for all the programmes that you are going to introduce at universities.
My problem, however, is that since the introduction of the outcomes-based education system, students, especially at universities, have been lured away from the humanities and attracted to commercial sciences and information and communications technology, to the point where researchers in African languages are virtually nonexistent. Are there any plans in place to attract university students back to African languages departments to make your programmes viable? Thank you.
