Cekeshe's family celebrates activist's release from prison eNCA

Kanya Cekeshe’s friend, Nkanyiso Ngqulunga spoke to Erin Bates about the Fees Must Fall activist’s release from prison. CourtesyJOHANNESBURG - Kanya Cekeshe's family is celebrating, after the Fees Must Fall activist was released from prison in the early hours of this morning.

He was sentenced to eight years behind bars, with three years suspended for his involvement in the university protest action. Cekeshe was released from Leeuwkop prison, in terms of President Cyril Ramaphosa's"remission of sentences". His friend Nkanyiso Ngqulunga said the family is happy and is looking forward to spending Christmas with him."The family is very, very happy, ever since yesterday [despite] issues because in fact he was supposed to be released yesterday.

They were at Leeuwkop waiting for his release and there was an issue with his DNA. But this morning they were very, very much happy about his release and he's at home now. It's a very happy moment for all of us," said Ngqulunga.

For Xmas give him some more police cars to burn

Before we celebrate let's remember that he was convicted to trying to set a police van on fire. He differs from some setting a library on fire because....

Activist......... ACTIVIST SURELY he is better known as Criminal... Prisoner... Arsonist... Saboteur.... Counter educationist....

This guy ticks all the boxes for Africa's definition of a good leader, so of course he is hero worshipped.

Piece of s*it belongs in jail for another 6 years, this is black privilege!

Cekeshe was Not imprisoned for Fees Must Fall, he was imprisoned for Arson;so it's misleading to refer to him as a Dee's must fall activitist, he is a convicted Arsonist!

Lesson: If we are unhappy about something lets go on a destruction spree, there will be little to no consequence. (Without realizing it this menatllity filters through in your relationships with your partner, family and friends.)
