News24 reports that University of Zululand (UniZulu) staff have been instructed to return to work on Monday, following violent student protest action on Thursday.
A notice on the university's website on Friday said that, while staff at the KwaDlangezwa campus were "advised" to return to work on Monday, campus facilities would still be closed to students. "No student will be allowed access to the KwaDlangezwa campus until further notice," the notice read. Police arrested thirty-two students on Thursday after a building and two police vehicles were set on fire. The university then announced that it was closing the campus. Condemning the damage to property, SRC deputy president Ndumiso Ntshangase said the students decided to protest after they had not received their meal allowance on Thursday. He added that students were prepared to negotiate with management.
