Masinde Muliro University Engineering School Closed Indefinitely

The School of Engineering at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology (MMUST) has been closed indefinitely.

This follows a strike by engineering students at the institution who brought activities to a standstill and destroyed property.

The students were protesting the alleged failure by the university to accredit their courses -a fact which the campus administration denied.

Following the strike, second year students, a majority of whom resided at the campus hostels were told to pack their belongings and leave the premises.

With enforcement from anti-riot police who were called to the ground, the notice was effected and all engineering students left the campus.

They await word from the administration on when they will be allowed back into the campus.
