Violence as Mzuzu University students clash with police
Mzuzu University students are violently clashing with police who had gone to M1 road to clear the road which the students had blocked.
The students burned tyres and demanded money from motorists in what they said was a demonstration against university management who had introduced a new system which demands full payment of school fees to access results and half payment to register for new semester.
The day started with a strike by staff who are demanding an increment in their salaries and other benefits.
University officials could not be reached for comment.
In Zomba, staff at the city council have closed offices as they are demanding a 15 per cent salary increase.
Operations of the council have been paralysed and the council is losing money in revenue as even revenue collectors have joined the strike.
Council spokesperson Mercy Chaluma has refused to comment on the strike.
They want free university education in 2019. My foot. learn to be realistic.
Imagine a University where a student only pays half their fees per year and does not pay the remaining amount. If the fees are MK 400,000, it means the student owes the college MK 200,000 per year. If this happens for 4 years, the student owes the college MK 800,000. If the college has 5000 students, the College is owed MK 4,000,000,000 (4 Billion Kwacha). And then we wonder why our Universities are not improving???
Kkkkkkkk ziliko akuyendetsa bwino dziko tiyeninazo dpp woyeeeeeh
Peter Hitler Mutharika was advised that Malawi is better off with a federal system otherwise Malawi will no longer know peace because the generation that was bamboozled with unitary system is all gone. This dictator, Peter Hitler Mutharika thinks that Malawians are stupid, he can slaughter them at will. We’re fighting for federalism so that each province can be able to fix it’s problems. We need a federalism with rotational presidency among our three provinces and each province allocated points according to its population. The southern region 35 points, Central region 30 points, and northern region 25 points. In order for a political party to win the presidency it must have more than 50 points. The DPP and MCP have refused and launched terror on Northerners. The governorship in each province must be rotated among the indigenous tribes of that province. No tribe must be dominant over the other tribes like what the lomwes are doing now. Northerners will not settle for unitary government but yes to federalism. If you don’t like it we have no choice but to liberate our Nyika from our oppressors. We want our children to be educated and be free in their Nyikaland. We’re not free but slaves. Time is up Nyikaland children fight to your last blood until Nyikaland is free. Alluta continuaaaaaa

To Timo Clouds:
