Activist goes to great lengths to get Ramaphosa’s attention
A Cape Town youth activist has received what he wanted after a week-long hunger strike.
President Cyril Ramaphosa's advisors are expected to visit Roscoe Jacobs in Hout Bay in two weeks' time.
Jacobs, who's also had ties to the African National Congress, wrote to the president, demanding suitable land and housing for Hout Bay's poorest people.

"I welcome this, I have asked them to stick to this commitment," says Jacobs.
