What’s wrong with UZ?
I was on a bus from Bulawayo to Harare the other day and sat next to a girl who had just come back from South Africa. She told me that she was coming back home for a holiday from university in South Africa. She said that she was on a full government scholarship (they pay for tuition and her living expenses for the whole time she is there for her degree - four years!) along with several hundred other Zimbabweans. I realise that this is good in that they are getting educated, but what is wrong with our Universities in Zimbabwe? We have paid millions in taxes to build them and now they spend even more money sending people out of the country to get educated and for their living expenses the whole time they are there. This raises the question - who are the people being sent over? Government officials children? I am very angry that we are paying more and more taxes to send people on holiday in South Africa while we have perfectly good schools here.
