#ZumaMustFall

                                                       #ZUMAMUSTFALL

ZumaMustFall campaign stipulates how the country has finally come to an agreement that Jacob Zuma needs to step down as our president since our country is reaching a huge junk state because of his reckless decisions over the past years.Petition of ZumaMustFall campaign

Personally I think as a Public Relations Practitioner without the use of social media we would not know what is happening in our country and across the globe especially the issues of having the ZumaMustFall banners all over the country. Social media has become such an epidemic platform for most people to help keep in touch with the happenings of our daily lives and get to see the views of ordinary people.

 ABOUT THE ZUMAMUSTFALL BANNER
The ZumaMustFall banner went up in Kloof street. ZumaMustfall billboard in Kloof street central Cape Town ZumaMustFall banner in Cape Town central Cape Town. This huge banner has got people talking about which political party actually paid to get the billboard put up on the MacDonald building in central Cape Town. This is a way to show that people are more in to what their peers report on. As Public Relations Practitioners we normally use social media either to respond to post that have been trending either to report or set the record straight on certain issues the public would usually say about our campaigns we normally use Social Media platforms such as twitter and Facebook to generate information and get more sufficient information to the general public. We know that in 2016 more people are exposed to the likes of hashtags and tweeting back and giving their personal opinion or views on any matter. I personally think that social media has been a tremendous help in getting people all the information they need on the go below shows how social media has become such a positive impact on society it actually shows that anyone can be a journalist.

 Tweets from a person who uses social media to report back on how the ZumaMustFall banner was removed in central Cape Town when he arrived in Cape Town where the actual billboard was put up and replaced with the South African national flag question is does the anc have anything to do with having the billboard removed after it has already gone viral.

#FeesMustFall

FEESMUSTFALL

The FeesMustFall initiative has helped a lot of students,if students did not stick together and fight the FeesMustFall syndicate a lot of students would be owing their respective universities registration fee for the year 2016 whereas most students would be out of a tertiary education and out of funding .As students we need to thank those students who were brave enough to go to the marches and fight for their financial freedom and stability towards the financial year in the year 2016. This is a photo of University of Johannesburg students at the FeesMustfall Rally in Auckland Park Johannesburg.

The below attachment shows a video of the University of Johannesburg students who where also joining the FeesMustFall campaign in order for them to support their neighboring  universities and also share their opinion and stop what would also happen to them during the 2016 financial year.Social media  has reached a vast audience we are updated on the happenings around the country as Public Relations Practitioners we use Social media to gather lots of information about FessMustFall and how Universities around the country have responded.In A lot of cases we have seen information trending about how students and parents where protesting in certain provinces of South Africa and how furious Most of these students were because some of them use cash and cannot afford to pay their tertiary fees if they keep increasing each year.
