Description
Two university buildings have been set ablaze at the University of Fort Hare's Alice campus in the Eastern Cape, amid fierce clashes between students and police. The violence erupted this week as protesters demanded a halt to planned changes in student governance.A student demonstration has now shut down all in-person academic activities, forcing the institution to suspend classes indefinitely. The trouble stems from the university's announcement last month to appoint an interim Student Representative Council while amending the constitution on student elections.
