SA's Education Crisis | SMU management expected to meet students

JOHANNESBURG - Students from the Sefako Makgatho Health Science University in Pretoria are demanding University management lift the suspensions of three SRC members and another student.

The students were suspended on Wednesday following an ongoing shutdown at the institution.

Students are angry over delays in NSFAS allowance payouts.
