Where did free higher education disappear to?




 Tertiary students of South Africa started a historical march where they were fighting for free higher education. They stood up for what they believed was theirs and they never backed down.

Jacob Zuma, the former President of the country, made their wishes come true when he announced that there will be free education for everyone. The students celebrated and they were very joyful.

This year though, most students couldn't register because some tertiary institutions wanted a registration fee. The question now is, what happened to free education?

20th century vs. 21st century fashion industry

Fashion is the only language which most young people know, not just in South Africa but globally. New fashion trends come up every day and we as young people try as hard as we can to follow them but then the reality is fashion changes every time.

Women stood up for themselves and brought up fancy words like “feminism” and they won the battle making most women to wear pants instead of trousers. Nowadays (21st century) fashion has changed to an extent that men now actually wear skirts and dresses which I think is an insult to our morals but then again women started this whole thing when they demanded equality in te...

Is he the true leader South Africa has been looking for?

"President Cyril Ramaphosa has the people of the Republic falling love with him for his early morning walks. Who knew a light brisk walk could get so much interest? His morning walks has had the country talking and taking a keen interest to join him. On Friday the president took to twitter to announce that he will be walking again, this time in Soweto.  “Good afternoon, I am encouraged by the positive response from many South Africans joining my morning walks and even starting their own walks in their communities. I invite those who can, to join me in Soweto tomorrow morning ahead of my voter registration drive this weekend.” he announced on Twitter." To be honest, I think Cyril will bring a huge difference within this little time he has. He does everything differently and puts the needs of the citizens first.   https://m.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/president-ramaphosa-does-it-again-20180309
