Click here view images from the protest: Zim March

While Jammie drivers Downed Tools, leaving pedestrians to walk up to campus in the blistering heat, things were hotting up elsewhere on campus. Hundreds of students gathered to join a protest march through the city of Cape Town, from Grand Parade to Parliament. The march included numerous student bodies, including the SRC (which organised the event), ZimSoc, Sasco and the DA, as well as the Movement for Democratic Change. Present were notables such as SRC President, Zuki Mqolomba; from the MDC, Sara Reith and former SRC President, Nqobizitha 'Fire' Mlilo; even the Independant Democrats' Patricia De Lille.
