Motshekga was speaking at the Nellmapius Secondary School, east of the city, on Monday.

 

She visited the school to mark the reopening of public schools across the country. 

 

“This government has prioritised education because it knows that it is only through education that we can deal with some of our challenges that are here,” Motshekga told pupils.

“Because an educated man won’t rape akere? Or do they?”

 

“Yes!” the students replied in disbelief. 

 

“Oh, I thought they needed to be civilised to not do certain things. Now I am disappointed,” replied Motshekga.
