Makerere University has suspended nine students and warned several others as they continued with sporadic protests on Wednesday against the unpopular 15 percent cumulative tuition policy.
The protests that commenced on Tuesday last week were spearheaded by Mollie Siperia, the Guild Representative Councilor for School of psychology and one Frank Bwambale who were later nabbed and suspended by the university vice chancellor Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe.
Unconfirmed reports indicate that Siperia who was brutally assaulted is currently hospitalized at unknown medical facility in Kampala.
Earlier today, the Students’ Guild President, Julius Kateregga, was reportedly kidnapped by unknown people moments after he had just left NBS TV where he was discussing issues pertaining the university alongside, Dr Muhammad Kiggundu, Manager Communications and international relations of the university. The kidnapping reports were confirmed by his deputy Judith Nalukwago.
Among the key issues, Kateregga blamed the University for blocking students without Identify cards into the university yet it failed to process them to over 70 percent of them.
“If Prof Hisali and Gordon Mulangira are brought to book, we shall know the rest of the people instigating violence. Our concern is with the tuition increment. We feel the government officials are failing to listen to reality. We all know the country’s growth rate is measured at five percent , why then would you give us a 15 percent increment?” He said on the show before being kidnapped
