The Western Cape African National Congress Youth League says it is encouraged by the South African Student Congress SRC election performances in the province.

ANCYL provincial Deputy Secretary Marissa Van Rensburh says, “The Youth League would like to congratulate the leadership and membership of SASCO in the province and at branch level.”

She added that SASCO’s achievements in the province come at the backdrop of a strong unity of purpose that prioritises student’s needs over self-interests of individual leaders.

Van Rensburh says “We congratulate our SASCO branches in CPUT (Cape Peninsula University of Technology), UWC (university of the Western Cape) in particular, but also Stellenbosch and UCT (University of Cape Town) for their resulting victories and inroads made in their SRC (Student Representative Council) elections.”

We see this a confidence of young people in SASCO in particular that the progressive youth alliance led by the ANC is the only vehicle of transformation at our institutions where we know in this province particular transformation needs to be pushed highly in the agenda, she concluded.
