REASONS WHY UNIVERSITY STUDENTS GO ON STRIKE


Over the years, university students have hit the streets sometimes for justifiable reasons, at other times, the excuses are just absurd. Just recently, they threatened to go on strike over delayed loans from HELB, but thankfully, the stalemate was resolved when the loans were released to respective students.some of the odd excuses comrades have used to justify going on rampage. ‘Jwala’ dispensers drained University hostels have condom dispensers. Students, both male and female, love them until they visit a condom dispenser in their hour of need, only to find that the dispenser empty. As punishment, they will stone the administration for a whole 24 hours. The ‘poor brand’ of condom dished out for free only stokes the fire. 2. Exam fever University students, and most of them, fear examinations. Why is it that they always seem to come too soon? Some of them who have an allergy for exams, and always think the questions are too difficult, will organize a small strike to have the whole thing postponed.3. Chipo for Sh80? In 2012, the price of ‘chips’ at Moi University shot up by twenty shillings to 80 bob. Angered comrades threatened to teach café attendants, who had no idea who controlled the prices, a lesson. 3. Freebies Students want to be at a university where there is free Wi-Fi and many other free things. Keeping them at home for six months because the university has to deal with ‘double intake madness’ will not work. They will strike, and strike again just to be in college. 4 Insecurity and accommodation. Many universities all over the country has been affected with the issue of accommodation. This was brought about by double intake. This has caused students flooding in the institutions as a result insecurity has been noticed. Students are found dead, others severely injured and many female students are raped and brutally madder. Recently Moi University students were on the street demanding for their rights as on of them was found raped and her life terminated.

Just recently, they threatened to go on strike over delayed loans from HELB, but thankfully, the stalemate was resolved when the loans were released to respective students. That was before Multi Media University was closed indefinitely after students went on a rampage apparently over unavailable Wi-Fi and Internet. Owing to the strike, property was destroyed and traffic on Mbagathi Road disrupted.
