As disagreement continues over the recent fee hike by the University Council, Information reaching FaceofMalawi indicates that Chancellor College, a constituent college of the University of Malawi (UNIMA) will be re-opened on September 12, 2016.

The development follows an order by President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika after meeting with UNIMA Students Union leaders at Kamuzu Palace over fee hike saga.

CHANCO was closed indefinitely after students from the college went on rampage protesting against fee hike, destroying school properties and other things.

According to a statement signed by the college’s Principal Richard Tambulasi, the college “has taken into consideration the process of the maintenance works and administrative requirements that need to be done before the students arrive”

Meanwhile students from Polytechnic have rejected Mutharika’s fees reduction by MK50, 000 saying the money is not enough.
