Dear MyPE
The trust students have in the DA Student Organisation (DASO) was reaffirmed when DASO candidates were elected to the positions of President and Deputy President of the Rhodes University Student Representative Council (SRC).
The SRC election concluded on Friday, 16 August 2019, and was hotly contested.
After all the ballots were casted and the votes counted, three of DASO’s candidates won positions on the SRC.
Katlego Mphahlele was elected as President, Masixole Njengele as Deputy-President, and Zandile Gcumisa as Councillor for Students and Benefits.
In 2018 DASO also claimed victories in SRC elections at the University of Fort Hare and PE College and this is indicative of growing youth support for the DA.
Furthermore, DASO’s commitment to caring for students and their issues reaffirms that it is the only alternative for good governance.
Students deserve an honest and caring government that will ensure that their dreams are enabled and the DA can give them that.
DASO continues to fight for no student to be left behind.
