LUPANE State University has reportedly employed the services bouncers to bar students who have not paid their fees from attending lectures.
The university first installed swiping machines hich did ot yield results, and then resorted to hiring bouncers.
A student who goes to Raylton campus, said even lecturers were refusing to take assignments from those who had not registered as of yet.
LSU public relations officer Mr Zwelithini Dlamini said students do not want to request for payment plans but instead continue attending lectures without a possible agreement with the institution.
Deputy Minister of Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development Dr Godfrey Gandawa said his ministry was yet to be appraised on the matter. He, however, said it was not correct for institutions to bar registered students to attend lectures despite having fees arrears.
