Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 64486, member: 636"] Medical students at Moi University asked the government on Monday to resolve a lecturers' strike that disrupted final examinations scheduled to begin this week. The work stoppage by the Universities Academic Staff Union has affected 42 public institutions nationwide, and sixth-year medical students face delayed graduation plans as the industrial action enters its fourth week. One student stated she joined the university at age 17, but now faces her 26th birthday after nearly a decade of education interrupted by recurring strikes lasting two to four months annually. The union demanded full implementation of the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement, but neither the government nor university administrators have announced closure plans since the strike began on Sept. 17.
