The ANCYL branch secretary Sandile Ngcobo says they understand a task team have been set up to look into the matter but has questions for management.


"We want to find out who is in that task team and why are the student leaders and the workers not part of that particular task team. We want the institution to give us dates and timelines in terms of when exactly they're going to put down an amicable solution to this protest," he said.
