The University of Nairobi Students' Association (UNSA) has opposed Parliament's inquiry into the institution's governance reforms, calling the process biased and politically influenced.
UNSA President Rocha Madzao said the National Assembly's Departmental Committee on Education appeared to have pre-determined conclusions about the university's restructuring efforts. "Some university stakeholders have made reference to findings attributed to the committee on matters still under active inquiry, suggesting the process has been hijacked," said Madzao.
The association defended reforms implemented since 2021, arguing they had improved efficiency and financial sustainability.
It cited cost-cutting measures, restructuring of faculties, and the closure of non-viable satellite campuses as key changes that helped stabilise operations.
