GAUTENG. – Academic activities at the University of Johannesburg (UJ) Auckland Park Kingsway campus (APK) have resumed after disruptions earlier today, Monday 26 October, were addressed and resolved.
Nuusflits received several video recordings of the alleged disruption that occurred on the campus and in classrooms. According to a source, one of the students reportedly said: "I have friends who sat exams today. Apparently they stormed the exam halls, started taking away the question papers and even assaulted the invigilators. It apparently happened at every exam hall today. Students' question papers were taken, and some students and invigilators were assaulted. The EFF students are continuing with the strikes. They have damaged various things on the campus and are reportedly standing with spades and similar objects outside the library."
According to UJ, students, staff and the broader community have been assured that normal university activities, including classes and exams, have resumed.
