Students rejects Muchinguri as Higher Education minister

Zimbabwe National Students Union (Zinasu) has rejected the new Higher Education minister Oppah Muchinguri saying she is not qualified to hold the post.

Makomborero Haruzivishe said that the appointment of Muchinguri to replace Olivia Muchena, who was sacked last week, was a retrogressive step.

He said as Zinasu they mourn the appointment of Oppah Muchinguri as the minister of Higher Education saying this dubious appointment literally highlights the burial of higher educational system whose massacre they witnessed with pain a few months ago with the equally dubious distribution of dubious doctorates.

Haruzivishe further accused the government of deliberately running down universities and colleges.
