"a fall" ... it's a fvcken suicide. Can @WitsUniversity just go get the stats from Akeso about how many Wits students they admit annually. It's so shocking guys ... #BraamSuicide pic.twitter.com/iVXzA6bQKQ

I’m completely gutted by the news that yet another Wits student commited suicide. Something is amiss in our academic, social, living and personal conditions that ought to be sooner rather than later.

A second year student of Mining engineering Wits community has committed suicide by jumping off the building from 5th floor and he didn't make it. My heartfelt condolences to friends and family.
