MiDesk saga | Education dept slammed over marketing gimmick

JOHANNESBURG - Basic Education is under fire over branded wheelie school bags called MiDesk.

Minister Siviwe Gwarube handed over the school bags which can be converted into desks and chairs.

They can be rolled along and are also equipped with solar lights and USB charging ports.

Section 27 is now calling for the withdrawal of the MiDesk, saying appropriate furniture must be provided.  

For more on this, we are joined by Section 27's senior legal researcher Tendai Mafuma.
