Yes, we did.  Firstly when he was dismissed students at school boycotted their classes, that was the beginning of the school boycott when they dismissed him.
 When the officials said they can't do anything because he doesn't want to listen to the authorities.  And that was the beginning of the school boycott in Cradock.
 It started in the high school here in Cradock, Lingelihle High School and today it is known as Matthew Goniwe.  They boycotted classes in that school and other schools also joined.
 There was a students' organisation at that time.  When they were trying to get together to solve this problem, the police banned all the students and for the residents.
 If you wanted to have a meeting, you would have to go to them so that you can get permission and they would ask you why do you want to have a meeting.  The students went to the police to ask for permission, actually they did not go there to ask for permission but they were asking a place where they can hold their meeting.
