The University of Johannesburg’s ANCYL branches; Aucklandpark Kingsway, Bunting Road, Doorenfontein and Soweto campus have decided to unite as they continue the campaigning for the elections. The social media has played a major role in these elections more than they have in the previous elections, as Facebook floods with electronic posters, flyers and podcasts.

Nicholas (character name) from Generations; South Africa’s number one television soapy stated how impressed he was with the merging of the ANCYL in all campuses. “I don’t mind helping you out with the campaigns because I am an ANCYL member as well” he said.

On Friday the 21^st of September he made his way to the Aucklandpark Kingsway campus, where the ANCYL had its activation and whore the shirt with its slogan, “Relax Mchana and Vote ANCYL” meaning the students must be relaxed and know who they are voting for, which is the ANCYL. South African Student Congress better known as SASCO has tried to cause division within the campaigning as they used the ANCYL posters to campaign for themselves and changes the logo to their own, however the slogan of the party is very clear hence they didn't fuss too much about it. However these could have an unintentional effect on their campaign strategy as students will begin to assume that they lack a sense of creativity and innovation.

Students are given a platform to criticize or add input to assist the campaigns and on Facebook.com, Twitter.com and also on the Blackberry Messenger groups created by ANCYL APB secretary general Mduduzi Nthuli.

The University of Johannesburg, Bunting Road Campus’ African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL) branch shows its absolute determination to ensure that the SRC elections on October 3^rd – 5^th 2012 go as smooth as it did last year. The UJ ANCYL APB is making sure that all students are part and parcel of the elections and ensures that the students of the University have a platform to add their input to the upcoming elections.

As the campaigning of elections is mainly voluntary a large number of students are generally interested in assisting the ANCYL branch because of their unity. Most students were impressed to have seen the people that they have voted for in the 2011 elections to still be SRC by the next elections, which were mainly ANCYL deployed council. The performance levels of the representative council were outstanding as well, this has in a way shown that the political youth forum of UJ APB were in the office to represent students and not represent their own interests. http://myfundi.co.za/e/The_history_of_the_ANC_Youth_League_(ANCYL)

As the University is working on increasing funds, members of the council will make sure that the rates in which they increase funds is reduced to a more affordable rate. However, the council members of the ANCYL are making sure that they are working together to ensure that the University stays an affordable academic environment for student s from all over South Africa.
