By Busisiwe Mtabane

The South African Student’s Congress says that not all South Africans are reaping the fruits of the country’s democracy. SASCO issued this statement during yesterday’s freedom day commemoration. The organisation says that only the educated are free. They say citizens can make a meaningful contribution in building and consolidating democracy in this country only through education. SASCO spokesperson Tembile Yako says the graduate placement programme, launched by deputy president Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka last year is not visible at all.
