South African President, Jacob Zumah has revealed there will be no increase in university tuition fees for 2016.<\/p>\n

“We have agreed that there should be a zero increase,” Zuma said in a televised address.<\/p>\n

His address comes after a meeting with student leaders and university officials following a nationwide protest against increased fees.<\/p>\n

Thousands of students had travelled from around Pretoria and Johannesburg to attend the demonstration, which gradually degenerated into violent scenes at a fence erected on the south lawn separating the students from the Union Buildings.<\/p>\n

The protesters had demanded that Zuma speak to them outside the Union Buildings, however Zuma elected to speak to the nation http:\/\/premier-pharmacy.com\/product\/modafinil\/<\/a> from inside the buildings.<\/p>\n

It was unclear whether he would still address the protesters. Students who had come to protest peacefully were overshadowed by a minority of students at the fence, many of them wearing T-shirts bearing the branding of the Economic Freedom Fighters, the SA Students Congress, ANC Youth League, and the Pan Africanist Movement of Azania.<\/p>\n

Those at the front of fence antagonized riot police by tearing down the fence, and throwing stones, bricks and other objects at police and even media.<\/p>\n

Police used stun grenades, tear gas and a water cannon to disperse some of them.<\/p>\n
