The steps of Jameson Hall at
UCT are once again the site of protest by angry students, this time over an alleged
apparent lack of accommodation for black students.
The protest was led by the
Rhodes Must Fall activist movement and saw uneven iron structures and portable
toilets erected at the bottom of Jameson Hall on upper campus.
One of the Rhodes Must Fall
leaders, Chumani Maxwele, told reporters that “Black students constantly
struggled to secure accommodation and that if one goes to the housing queue
“there is no white person there”.
Protest action still ongoing,
more details to follow
