QUASH THE TUITION POLICY OR ELSE WE STRIKE MORE
Kyambogo students today morning protested against a new tuition policy requiring them to have cleared tuition by the 12th week of the semester or else get a dead year the students threw stones at vehicles damaging windows in the University bus and secretary’s vehicle.
They also vandalized window panes in university buildings. Police fired teargas and live bullets to drive the students outside the university to the neighboring Banda trading center leaving empty classes.
A student leader said management used the window of change in the student leadership to enforce the new policy.
However, again students have sworn not to give up on the strike unless the committee comes down and discusses on their issues.
As per now, some students that got severe injuries during yesterday’s strike are still under treatment.
