Valygar cant play with spells

Okay, you trapse up a mountain side looking for the guy hiding in a cupboard, and ask him to follow you back to the city so that you can start the Planar Sphere quest. After getting him to join and giving him stuff, you ask him to sit down pray to his gods and learn a bloody cure light wounds spell! What does he say, NOPE no can do!

Am i missing something here, he is 11th lvl just like minsc, but when on the clerics spell selection screen, no options to choose spells appear! The screen is not coloured red, ie no option, but no entries on the 1st tab, or spells appear ?

Any help in getting the dumb hunk to learn to read would be appreciated.....and after all its just so I can get the Planar Sphere as a new home for my main guy!

Valygar is a stalker, check his kit description, he may not be able to cast spells. Kinda like Keldorn is a paladin, but his kit doesn't allow him to use lay on hands.
