Accommodation is another problem. This has been an issue since the 2015 and 2016 #FeesMustFall protests but has gained prominence over the years. One of the main reasons for this is a direct off-set of Zuma’s free education policy. A greater number of students have been allowed to register at institutions of higher learning, but provisions have not been adequately provided by the universities and the government.
The latest protests reflect a change in the public’s sentiment. Even though the #FeesMustFall protests were not universally received with enthusiasm by the public, by the end of the movement, there was broad understanding of the issues students faced. Universities also seem less inclined to listen to students. They cannot hold all the burden for the students’ grievances but they often seem uninterested in understanding the very people they are meant to be serving.
They all well heeled,in designer outfits. Pleading poverty!
The fees must fall was a project supported by the forces pushing the agenda for the regime change, the ignorant students were used by these forces, now the game has changed, thats why nobody gives attention to the students.
