Nine reasons why Daystar University students have gone on strike

Daystar University students in Athi River and Nairobi campuses went on strike on Thursday 16 November over a number of complaints against the administration including high tuition fee.

"There is so much talk and no walk in the institution. They have very poor and pathetic services especially transport, food and health," said Carole Nduku a student from daystar.

The administration has however said that it is addressing the issues raised by the students. Here are the reasons why the students have gone on strike;

1. Misuse of funds

2. Complacency of senior management

3. A culture of fear and silence around the Vice Chancellor
