The correct answer is letter "D": Unemployment is high due to slower than expected economic growth following the end of apartheid.

Explanation:

Unemployment has remained high in South Africa since the rule of the white minority ended twenty five years ago. Unemployment is higher among the 15-34 age group, which represents nearly two-thirds of the unemployed. It is estimated that there is no work for about four out of ten young adults.
