Chanco vice principal confirms students roughed him up
Chancellor College (Chanco) Vice- Principal Associate Professor Samson Sajidu has confirmed that he was roughed up by protesting students last Thursday in the college campus in the eastern city of Zomba.
The students were staging protests f ollowing a disagreement that erupted during an impromptu meeting between Students Union of Chancellor College (Succ) and the college’s administration.
Chanco students did not receive their stipend allowances until Thursday.
Sajidu said he attracted wrath of the students when he was persuading them to call of the protests, assuring them the allowances will be paid by next day/
“The students started demonstrating in the evening, which is not allowed even in foreign countries because anything can happen to them. In this case, they blocked roads for staff members and there were no administrators there,” he said.
Sajidu said he called the police for help by the cops did not pick his calls.
He said, eventually, a group of students approached and harassed him .
According to Sajidu, the issue is currently being handled by the college management.
Succ president, Frank Chidampamba, claimed Vice-Principal slapped a student and was victimised in the process.
THERE ARE SOME IDIOTS WHO DO NOT KNOW THAT CONSULTANCY IS PART OF A LECTURER’S JOB.
Where were the college security officers for the vice principal to be calling the law enforcers? You do not trust trust in your staff? Kaya musova.
Am glad that the Government has removed mal switch. Anthu akuphunzira zaulele pocket money yolandira Nkumavutavuta ndima demonstration! Don’t you know that it affects those who are paying for themselves? ? Zinthu zaulele zimabweretsa maphokoso.
Yes, this is logical……..the police couldn’t pick the phone from the principal, I think they were scared of interfering with academic freedom.
Fight for your rights otherwise the authorities take students welfare for granted
aiwala kunene kuti iwowo was the first to slap a student…kumenyedaw ndi mastudentwo kunali revenge ya ma students for the beating of their friend……biased reporting
Why should students be paid for their own learning? This must stop. Countries have either tuition or free university education, not student allowances! What is the rationale for this allowance? Even a book allowance does not make sense. Colleges should stock libraries well and students should take care of their own pen, pencils and printing paper.
Ma student akenso osasamba apa mmalo moti mungolimbikira maphunziro anu kuti muthetse ma umphawi anu koma you’re getting involved ndi zinthu zopusa 70% a inu mu kuchokera ma family ovutika oti mutati mwathamangitsidwa ndi chiyambi cha mavuto. Useless.
