There was joy among students and parents of Kyambogo University on Tuesday as the striking lecturers resumed work suspending three week long strike that last month led to the closure of this university.

In a meeting today between the university staff and National Union of Educational Institutions agreed to call off the strike after the embattled Vice Chancellor mr. Isaiah Ndiege agreed to step aside on Friday.

Ndiege is accused by the university low staff of running down the 10-year–old institution by undermining his subordinates.

Ndiege told the press that those fighting him want to grab university property and run away from its accountability.
