Not Just Whites Fleeing SA – Wits Vice Chancellor Leaving Wits & South Africa for UK. Adam Habib Sites Pressure From Corrupt Elites Demanding Preferential Treatment For Children as Reason!

Posted on Leave a comment

The brain drain and exodus from South Africa is not just whites fleeing, as mainstream media would have you believe. Even non white liberals like Wits University Vice Chancellor, Adam Habib, has announced his resignation from Wits and says he is also leaving South Africa, to settle in England, where he will have to survive without a BEE crutch.

Among the reasons he sites the shocking experiences from students’ parents who “offer to do something” for him if he lets their children be admitted to medical school and he looks after their child once admitted.

He also warned that the lawlessness had made him uncomfortable, and that left-wing extremists as well as conservative elements were destroying him, although we are not sure which “right wing” elements have been disrupting Universities?

He says these were just a few examples of the experiences he had at Wits, and in his seven years of service at the universit

Stellenbosch University is being accused as a racist institution after previously disadvantaged groups are flaunting allegations left and right

Posted on Leave a comment

Students are once again obsessed with the so-called racism used by whites and complain about things that have nothing to do with racism, says an educator who wants to remain anonymous.

One white man speaks to other whites on campus, ignoring the other coloured people who join it, and it is now called racism, it is said.

The whites also do not share their knowledge of a particular subject’s content with other students, except with their friends who are also whites.

One student complains that her roommate, who is white, does not speak to her father because she is black, and considers it a serious offense of racism.

Educators believe the complaints of other coloreds are considered to be those of people with an inferiority complex and should seek the fault within themselves. After all, it is logical for people to be more positive towards their own friends than to strangers.

ANC regime blows millions of rands on students to study medicine in Cuba – Costs amount to more than double the amount it would cost in SA

Posted on Leave a comment

Allegations are being made that the ANC Free State paid more than R330,000 per student to study in Cuba to become a doctor.

This is more than double the amount it would have cost in South Africa, and the biggest problem is that the students did not graduate.

It takes six years to graduate as a doctor in Cuba, plus one year to be taken as a language course beforehand to master Spanish.

Initially, 211 students were sent to Cuba, 33 of whom soon returned to SA, but soon after, one perished in a street of the capital.

The training of doctors in Cuba differs from the training offered in South Africa, and experts warn that the doctors are not necessarily suitable for the service expected of doctors.

Oh no, not again! Panic, outrage as Unisa examinations compromised again after exam papers had been leaked

Posted on Leave a comment

“Oh no, not again!” This was the reaction of University of SA (Unisa) students on social media after the university sent out an email on Friday afternoon to students announcing that exam question papers for the second semester – October and November – had been leaked.

The outrage was swift on social media after the university sent the email to its 400 000 students about the compromised exams.

Unisa also informed the students that an investigation was underway to establish what had happened.

Some students panicked online, speculating which modules were affected.

Others speculated that it could have been the Taxation and Business Activities and Economics papers and the Foundations in English Literacy Studies exam.

Questions were emailed to Martin Ramotshela, the university spokesperson, and to Professor Mandla Makhanya, Unisa’s principal and vice-chancellor, on Friday afternoon.

Ramotshela said yesterday he wou

Magashule: SA economy is in the hands of the minority and unfortunately, they are white – White monopoly still exists

Posted on Leave a comment

ANC secretary general, Ace Magashule breathed new life into the party’s controversial debate on the concept of white monopoly capital when he said on Wednesday night that the economy was still in the hands of white people. He goes further by saying that if white monopolistic capital was redefined as monopolistic capital, students would have fought less aggressively against it.

Ace made the odd remarks at an event at the University of Witwatersrand, where he addressed students with the theme of building a foundation in the current political system. He says white monopoly capital exists and it is a reality that will not disappear. He again used the ANC rhetoric of the students who can now study after the freedom movements made it possible. He also took the opportunity to say that the EFF has no right to claim the concept of economic freedom since the ANC started it years ago as a pursuit.

According to Magashule, the economy is in the hands of the w

What a check! These kids want everything on a silver platter for free – UKZN students burn mattresses in protest over ‘uncomfortable’ beds – African mentalism is destroying our country

Posted on Leave a comment

Fed up with the poor condition of their beds, University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) education students have resorted to setting them on fire.

Students at a university residence in Hospital Road, near Durban’s South Beach, burnt the metal frames of their beds on Sunday night to voice their dissatisfaction.

On Monday morning, burning mattresses were seen being flung out of windows at the residence, occupied by education students from the UKZN’s Edgewood campus. The protest resulted in lectures at the campus being cancelled.

Student representative council (SRC) president Sanele Hlongwa told TimesLIVE that they set their beds alight because they could no longer sleep on them.

“For ages now, students have been asking that their beds be changed. The building at Hospital Road is a university-owned building. The university has changed the beds at residences on campus. The same must be applied to off-campus residences,” said Hlong

TUT’s nine campuses across the country are still closed due to violent protests by black disadvantaged students who apparently cannot study on empty stomachs

Posted on Leave a comment

Academic programs were discontinued at all Tshwane University of Technology campuses and students were ordered to vacate residences.

Residence property has been damaged in the past and recovery costs have not yet been calculated.

Fears exist for student and staff safety. According to TUT’s Willa de Ruyter, the situation at campuses is unpredictable and flammable. The Young Communist League considers the decision of TUT to be a confirmation that challenges and demands of previously historic black disadvantaged students are being overlooked.

Students insist that the National Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) provides their grants for food, especially for those students who do not live on campus, while also insisting on more accommodation.

The police used shock grenades on Monday to dismiss the students who moved to the office of Higher Education Minister Naledi Pandor in Pretoria.

Tuks phasing out Afrikaans as medium of instruction and will from now only use English as the primary language of communication and administration

Posted on Leave a comment

The University of Pretoria is to phase out Afrikaans as the official medium of instruction at all its campuses and residences.

The university will from now only use English as the primary language of communication and administration.

University spokesperson Rikus Delport said the policy was adopted in 2016 by the university’s council and Senate after “extensive consultation process and recommendations from all interested parties”.

“The change in policy is aimed at facilitating social cohesion, and the university will continue to embrace and encourage multilingualism to foster unity and provide equal opportunities to speakers of all South African languages,” he said.

The consultation process included a language work stream that was formed as part of the transformation lekgotla and the independent transformation panel that focused on submissions from external stakeholders.

Delport said the decision from the various interest
