Higher Education and Training Minister Nobuhle Nkabane has apologized to Advocate Terry Motau. She admitted to using his name for a board selection committee without asking him first. The minister spoke with Motau about his role in choosing people for education training authority boards. She reversed all the appointments after people complained about political connections. Nkabane said she wanted to clear up any confusion about what happened.

Motau had refused to take part in the selection process last week. He said the minister put his name on the committee even though he told her he could not do the job. The advocate learned about his supposed appointment from news reports. He explained that officials never gave him proper instructions about chairing the panel. Motau wrote a letter explaining his reasons for not participating.

The minister sent Motau a formal letter on Monday to discuss the situation. Nkabane said she never meant to lie about his involvement or hurt his reputation. She apologized for the mix-up and said they worked things out. The minister claimed both parties reached an agreement about what happened. Nkabane said the misunderstanding has been fixed between them.
