Johannesburg – Students representatives from several universities said they could not guarantee that students would not return to the streets in protest when academic activities resumed in 2016.

The group met with Parliament’s Portfolio Committee on Higher Education in Johannesburg on Thursday, where they advised that it was best that resolutions be made before the new year.

“We need something concrete to tell the students, a model with a timeline,” said Fasiha Hassan.

Students who took to the streets several weeks ago all over the country firstly demanded a zero percent fee hike next year.
