CSEC asks UNIMA council to reverse de-linking constituent colleges’ suspension

Civil Society Education Coalition (CSEC) has asked University of Malawi Council to reverse its decision of suspending the delinking process of university constituent colleges.

According to CSEC Executive Director, Benedicto Kondowe, the council should allow the process to continue as it is already at its final stage.

He said if the directive has come from President Chakwera, he should come out clear on why he wants the delinking process to stop since the decision was already consulted and decided on.

“The coalition has given the council and Government 7 days ultimatum to deal with the matter saying it can cause chaos if it is not dealt with urgently,” Kondowe

In his remarks, an education expert, Limbani Nsapato, said it is wrong for the council to suspend the process because different stakeholders including Parliament already agreed on delinking the University of Malawi upon consultations.
