He did not mince his words when he addressed supporters shortly after he was released on bail.


Dlamini is calling for a second exam sitting for students who feel they can get better marks.


"It will be a failure if our people are forced to write exams under these conditions, under torture. Our people are not psychologically ready. We are now making a call to the university...before the day ends today, they must announce two sittings. Otherwise daai poppe sal dans [heads will roll]," says Dlamini.


Dlamini is out on bail after spending three weeks behind bars.


He was arrested on the Wits campus, following violent clashes.
