Nzimande and Police Minister Nathi Nhleko visited the institution this morning, to call on students across the country to respect university property after the recent disruptions over language policies and outsourcing.
Nzimande says he visited Wits today to show members of the public why it’s dangerous to destroy university property.
“To ensure that a few of the things housed here, such as the original court records of the Rivonia Trial are protected, but all our universities have got records that hold historical significance that we need to protect.”
Nzimande and Nhleko says engagement with university management can still take place peacefully.
A small group of students chanted “Blade must fall”, while he was addressing the media on the steps of the Wits library.
They believe Nzimande isn't addressing the real issues affecting students across the country.
