According to these students, Prof Nawangwe wrote to them on 6th and 7th August 2018 specifying reasons for their suspension and said he took the decision to ensure the safety and security of other members of the university since the circulating messages were reportedly calling for defiance and disruption of peace.

They now want an order of compelling the university administrators including; vice chancellor, academic registrar and dean of students to unconditionally reinstate them to their respective programs of study and facilitate them in terms of administering them with special tests, examinations or academic privileges lost as a result of their indefinite suspension.
