Students at Kamuzu University of Health Sciences (KUHeS) have been ordered to pay K24,306 each after two projectors went missing from a lecture room. With at least 300 students affected, the university is set to collect over K7 million to replace the missing equipment.
Some parents are fuming, calling the move unfair and questioning why students should be forced to cover the cost of stolen items.
“K7 million for two projectors? That’s too much,” one parent told Zodiak.
But KUHeS isn’t backing down. The Director of Student Affairs, Dr. Benjamin Kumwenda, says the university had no choice after students failed to reveal who took the projectors, Zodiak reports.
Fair call or daylight robbery? 🤔
