This comes after the university’s Braamfontein campus descended into chaos this afternoon as students escalated their protest on day three.
Their demands include historic debt preventing students from registering, the National Student Financial Aid Scheme residence cap of R45 000 and rules on registering with the Hardship Fund, among other things.
Patel elaborates, “The situation has calmed down now and Campus Protection Services is trying to get those trespassing off the campus as soon as possible. Entrances have been closed and staff and students will be allowed to leave. No one is currently being allowed onto our campuses. We have already illustrated our commitment to trying to support our students as far as possible and to address many of the systemic national issues.
That's funny. The female who attacked the bus stop sign and who lost to the poster on the pole was interviewed as the leader in the protest at WITS by eNCA. So.. try again.
Just another display of true AFRICANACITY....!!!
Hmmmm year 8 of a 3 year degree...you fail you out let someone who deserves a place be admitted!!!
Typical ANC supporters
BULLSHIT,stop defending these people!
The students of Wits what they are doing is unnecessary and invite political party to join them is wrong we are the ones who paid the tax in order for them to get subsidized loan for education so they must not misused that opportunity to finished their studies
Yo fake students, thats fantastic, only in Satafrica, everything for mahala, also everything fake from politicians to escom technicians and now students. Practicing kadre deployment, starting early to be pro's at a young age.
Stop wearing those colours of political and civil organisations, they don't love you and never will love you... Apartheid is over there's no need to adopt the support of the same people who deny you the basics...
They wear their ANC and EFF colours so proudly thinking they Political organisations support them, meanwhile it's those same leaders who denied you the basics failed at every level of leadership in every sector but let's protest and make it political..This is not pre-apartheid.
Ancyl thugs
