Show Notes
University of Fort Hares Vice-Chancellor, Professor Sakhela Buhlungu, faces disciplinary action following a forensic probe into the hiring of two executive directors. He and three other top managers skipped required approvals, leading to their precautionary suspension. The council appointed Dr. Nthabi Taola-Mjimba as acting vice-chancellor. Buhlungu, who took office in 2017 and had his term extended in 2021, previously survived an assassination attempt in 2023. The council emphasizes this is a precautionary measure, ensuring operations continue as usual while they address the situation.
