Fees must fall

My mother use to tell me 'if you think education is expensive try illiteracy' and I will laugh so hard because by then I never really knew the value and importance of education.  I was just 10 at the time. I came to south African in 2011 and by then my fess were  R19000 at the University of the western cape that but now with the yearly increasement I pay 27000 for a Bc in Arts with no improvement of the quality in education of infrastructure.
Education should be made a necessity not a priority.  I wonder how many people can really afford tertiary education now talk less of when an increase of 10% which Mr. Zuma and his ministers are proposing. 

The irony about all these is that the south African Government is made up of more than 80% of black ministers who understands the daily struggle of an under privileged black south African but still they propose an increase of 10% on tuition. 
Fess Must Fall is not just a slogan on socal media but a curse which should be attend.
