Students believe the victim, who is currently fighting for his life in hospital, was attacked by a known gang called ‘Amadabuka’, apparently responsible for terrorising students living off campus.

Lecture halls, the libraries, book shops as well as all roads leading to the institution are currently blocked with bricks and stones, and no one is allowed to exit or enter the institution.

Even though the protest started peacefully this morning, protesters have just forced entry to Qhakaza and Ongoye high schools, demanded that pupils join the march.
Safe for University of Zululand students has always been an issue, especially for off campus students, media doesn't even know #UNIZULU exists, it is alway mistaken for #UKZN, its only when there are scandals that people care pic.twitter.com/yaBcJ6N6s1
