Kenya University has been closed indefinitely following the students’ rampage that has paralysed activities at the institution.
In a memo released by the University Senate, all students have been ordered to vacate the university premises Immediately.
“Following disturbances by some students from yesterday 7th October 2019 to 8th October 2019 that has led the disruption of lectures and destruction of university property, the University enate has decided to close the University until further notice,” read in part the Memo.
The students on Monday engaged police in running battles causing a heavy traffic snarl-up on Thika Road.
Led by their union boss Joshua Ayika, the students are demanded the resignation of the institution’s Vice-Chancellor Prof. Paul K. Wainaina for what they termed as “historical injustices.”
The students have been reportedly lamenting over strict deadlines of clearing their fees and also increase in charges of supplementary exams.
