Persistent closure of Mzuni worry students, search for Devine’ intervention

Affiliated faiths clubs at Mzuzu University (Mzuni) are seeking for God‘s intervention in the closure of the institution through prayers.

The university was closed in November last year following a sit-in by lectures and support staff who are demanding a pay hike.

According to a student at the college, members of SCOM, CCAP and other churches have been conducting the prayers since Friday last week.

This comes at a time the institution is facing numerous challenges including prolonged closure. Students from the institution are just rotting at home, hopelessly lost in confusion over whether authorities will mull over reopening the college soon.

“I belong to SCOM, and we think where our wisdom as students ends, is where God’s wisdom starts. We therefore gather everyday seeking for his intervention.

“Likewise members of CCAP and other churches. We pray together and we believe our God is a God of possibilities. Everything will be possible,” said SCOM member.

Meanwhile, there is no any official determination from government on the issue.
