Limpopo University responds to allegations it ignored parliament

Loading player...
The Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Higher Education is exploring legal avenues to compel the University of Limpopo (UL) to respond to questions to the institution’s management and to abide by summons served on it. The summons was issued to Vice-Chancellor Professor Mahlo Mokgalong, chairperson of council, Pandelani Nefolovhodwe and chairperson of the Institutional Forum Joy Sixholo, to provide the National Assembly with responses to their questions. The summons was issued by parliament on March 28, but the institution has not responded. Phemelo is joined in studio by the University of Limpopo’s Spokesperson Victor Kgomoeswana to respond to the allegations made against the institution.
