Years later, she is now one of about 40 graduates who are still waiting for their certificates.Meyer elaborates, “At the moment, it seems like I haven’t finished my studies.

Nathaly Hagglund also studied Human Resources. She says she is disappointed that she cannot show her parents the much-awaited national diploma certificate. “We all have a dream, and my dream was to receive my national diploma and tell my parents, ‘look here, I made you proud’. But it’s almost like you feel robbed from that.” adds Hagglund.

Attempts to get a response from the Department of Higher Education were unsuccessful despite a media inquiry sent to the department.

This is disgusting
