NBS TV's journalist Canary Mugume was on monday afternoon ejected out of meeting by angry Makerere University students.

 

The youthful presenter had come to cover meeting between University admistrators and students leaders on matters of 15% tuiion fees increase.

 

Upon arrival, Canary along with his cameraman was greeted with jeers by the visibly angry students who later on evicted them. He originally took the incident lightly but was later asked to leave due to concerns over his safety.

 

Students cited favoritism with the University administration while covering the ongoing strike, having previously reported that the university was calm yet students were engaged in running battles with the police, being arrested and teargas fired at them.

 

The meeting however did not yield any positive results since the University maintained not scrapping off 15% tuition increase policy
