Down with Rhodes, Up with Hitler!

While student activists at UCT have been successful in their protest of removing the Rhodes statue, Wits University SRC president Mcebo Dlamini places a post on his facebook page about admiring Adolf Hitler. Dlamini has explained that while he's not naive to the atrocities Hitler committed, he believes the dictator was a great leader who was able to rally people behind him. In a subsequent interview, Dlamini said that every white person had an element of Hitler in them. Since his Facebook posts were made public, Dlamini has been unapologetic about his comments, despite an outcry from the South African Union of Jewish Students (SAUJS) who are calling for him to be removed as SRC president. Vice Chancellor at Wits, Professor Adam Habib has launched a probe to check whether disciplinary action can be instituted against Dlamini.
