AfriForum Youth’s National Coordinator for Tertiary Institutions, Chantelle du Preez

A video of a group of students attacking a man, alleged to be responsible for financial aid, is doing the rounds, with a number of social media users asking whether classes will continue today (Wed) following the disruption that erupted yesterday. It is alleged that the scuffle comes just days before the majority of students are expected to start with exams. Meanwhile, the AfriForum Youth says this is a matter of great concern and confirms that it has laid charges against a political student group at the University. AfriForum Youth’s National Coordinator for Tertiary Institutions, Chantelle du Preez, says many classes and tests were disrupted during the demonstration by certain Students on campus and that students, as well as staff, were assaulted by the demonstrators.
