His announced is so pathetic.

He didnt address any student.

All he said was no increase in 2016 and exams will be reschedule.

 

[cr@zydude]

0% increase, and nothing else. Watch the students turn up the pressure.

So I guess the **** will be hitting the fan now

I hope this causes the "youth" to move their votes away from the ANC.

He muzzled them and basically said their other issues will be seen as a priority(which it wont).

He applied a band aid on the wound.

I don't expect the protestors to be happy with this.

ANC are in a tight spot now. Snowball effects from this sort of caving can be disastrous.

Maybe same deal? 0% increase?

Also the decolonisation of the SA universities (Private/public)

The struggle's far from over, according to the student leaders in my campus. Bring it on.
