Police arrested five more University of Zimbabwe (UZ) students on Wednesday in connection with demonstrations against tuition fee hikes that took place on Monday at the Mt Pleasant campus.
The five are Tinovimba Musengi, Hazel Gwande, Purpose Mangana, Tanyaradzwa Nzvimbo and Charles Moyo.
They were detained at Avondale Police Station pending their court appearance.
On Monday, 16 students were arrested for allegedly participating in the demonstration.
The Students’ Representative Council (SRC) leader, Allan Chipoyi told NewZimbabwe.com that the 16 have since been freed. Said Chipoyi:
<blockquote>
Since Monday, police have been looking for the organisers of the demonstration that happened and they arrested 16 students who have so far been freed.
Today some students were trying to stop others from attending classes as they had agreed that they are staying home, and no one must attend lectures until the issue has been addressed.
The police and UZ security started chasing away students and that is when the five students got arrested.
It is unfair as no one knows if they were part of those who were trying to stop others or not.
</blockquote>
UZ recently increased undergraduate fees to between Z$300 000 and Z$500 000, up from Z$50 000, while some Master’s degree programme tuition fees were increased to close to Z$1 million.
Chipoyi called for dialogue between students and the university administration on the way forward. He said:
<blockquote>
The administration must understand that our parents are peasants and they do not afford such huge amounts of fees.
We need dialogue with the administration on the way forward so we can agree on a more reasonable amount.
</blockquote>

Five More UZ Students Arrested Over Demonstration

The University of Zimbabwe is reviewing the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/university-of-zimbabwe-raises-fees-for-the-august-december-2022-semester/">recently announced hike in tuition fees</a> of up to $500 000, described by many students as unaffordable and beyond the reach of their parents and guardians.
Vice Chancellor Professor <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Paul_Mapfumo">Paul Mapfumo</a> told The Herald Monday that the higher learning institution was seized with that matter and urged students to remain calm.
The students yesterday demonstrated denouncing the fee hike.
In an interview with The Herald, Professor Mapfumo said the university registrar had two closed-door meetings with the Student Representative Council (SRC) and they were looking forward to having another round of discussions today. He said:
<blockquote>
We are engaging key stakeholders including the Student’s Representative Council. It is the feedback that we value. The registrar had two meetings today and we are expecting to have a round-up meeting tomorrow.
</blockquote>
SRC president Allan Chipoyi yesterday urged students who had gathered to protest to give dialogue a chance. 
Yesterday, hundreds of University of Zimbabwe students briefly held a procession over the fees hike. They appealed to the Vice Chancellor to reconsider the move which they said was not in sync with the prevailing economic conditions.
According to the new fee structure, undergraduate students are required to pay anything between $300 000 to $500 000 depending on their faculty.
Students pursuing a Master’s degree will have to fork out up to $700 000 (US$900 per official exchange rate) also depending on their faculty and students are expected to pay the fees by September 30.

University Of Zimbabwe Reviewing The Recently Announced Hike In Tuition Fees

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has banned Civic Society Organisation (CSOs) that are not accredited with them from conducting voters education ahead of the 26 March by-elections and 2023 general elections.
On Friday last week, ZEC released a list of 76 CSOs that it has approved to conduct voter education countrywide.
ZEC spokesperson, Joyce Kazembe, on Saturday told The Standard that ZEC has the mandate to approve organisations to engage in voter education as well as the materials that they would be using during the campaigns. Said Kazembe:
<blockquote>
The procedure is that anyone who wants to engage in voter education must submit an application to the commission.
They will be stating their particulars and the activities they want to conduct. The content must be approved by the commission.
Those that are not on the list that we submitted, but are conducting voters’ education must not be doing that without permission. They must stop forthwith.
They must do that only after they have been registered with us. Those that are doing that have been doing so illegally.
</blockquote>
Project Vote 263, an organisation that recently claimed it had facilitated the registration of 9 635 virgin voters throughout the country in 2021, is not on the ZEC list.
However, Project Vote 263 chairperson Alan Chipoyi said they are constitutionally mandated to conduct voter education. Said Chipoyi:
<blockquote>
We will continue encouraging people to vote. ZEC has no mandate to select the parties that are consulting, but they can regulate the content that is disseminated.
We are conducting a constitutional mandate to encourage citizens to register to vote and no one will stop us from carrying out that mandate.
</blockquote>
Last week ZEC came under scrutiny from opposition parties and civic groups after it recently released disputed figures of newly-registered voters.
ZEC announced that only 2 000 new voters were registered in 2021 but later revised the figure to 2 971 after opposition political parties and civic groups challenged its statistics.

ZEC Bans Unaccredited Civic Groups From Conducting Voter Education

University of Zimbabwe student, Allan Chipoyi, whose scholarship was revoked for alleged links with the opposition has denied allegations that Project Vote 263, which he chairs, was formed to champion the regime change agenda. 
Project Vote 263 has been campaigning for the registration of new voters ahead of the 2023 elections. 
Chipoyi was recently informed by the Zimbabwe Manpower Development Fund (ZIMDEF) that his scholarship had been cancelled. Chipoyi said: 
<blockquote>
My scholarship had no conditions upon which payment was premised. They are trying to eliminate me from the education system and yet there are no compelling reasons as to why they want to do so.
That is not even our agenda [to topple the government], our agenda is crystal clear that we want to help the people of Zimbabwe to vote. I don’t know where the confusion is emanating from.
</blockquote>
The business and finance student said he had engaged a lawyer to take up his case with ZIMDEF.
Chipoyi said two weeks ago he failed to access his results through his student account portal because of a ZWL$26 000 balance, and he approached the bursary office to enquire.
The bursary office advised Chipoyi that if he was under a ZIMDEF scholarship the due balance reflecting in his account meant his scholarship had been cancelled.
Ministry of Higher and Tertiary education spokesperson Chipo Mayeza said Chipoyi’s full fees are being paid by ZIMDEF until he finishes his studies in 2023. Mayeza said:
<blockquote>
The ministry’s position is that all the available scholarships in our institutions we do not discriminate against gender, sex, race, class or political affiliation. If the student is facing any challenges, he should visit the ministry.
</blockquote>
Chipoyi insisted the fees had not been paid as he is still unable to access his results.
Chipoyi and the Project Vote 263 director Youngster Matete were arrested in Gweru on Tuesday after they mobilised transport for 30 people in Mkoba and ferried them to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission offices so they could register to vote.

UZ Student Speaks After Scholarship Was 'Revoked' By The Government

Project Vote 263 chairperson and student activist Allan Chipoyi had his scholarship with the Zimbabwe Council for Higher Education (ZIMCHE) cancelled under controversial circumstances.
According to Project Vote 263, a local newspaper wrote an article accusing Chipoyi of working with opposition parties to remove the government and this could be the reason why the scholarship was withdrawn. <a href="https://twitter.com/ProjectVote263/status/1457427167235694594?s=20">They Tweeted:</a>
<blockquote>
Sad to report that our Chairperson (@AllanChipoyi)’s scholarship with ZimChe has been cancelled, for allegedly fronting opposition interests, this comes after the “The Patriot Zim newspaper” wrote an article accusing him of working with opposition parties to remove the govt.
</blockquote>
On 3 March this year, Chipoyi was one of four students who were arrested for participating in a protest calling for a fair bail ruling for the president of the Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) president Takudzwa Ngadziore and the union’s secretary-general Tapiwanashe Chiriga, <a href="https://www.universityworldnews.com/post.php?story=20210308090021290">University World News</a> reported.
The protest was sparked by magistrate Vongai Guuriro-Muchuchuti’s decision to deliver the bail ruling on the two’s bail application three days after the matter had been heard.
Chipoyi was arrested alongside Falon Dunga, Pritchard Paradzayi and Glown Magaya. They were charged with participating in a gathering with intent to cause public violence and were all released on ZWL$5 000 bail two days later.
