A MALAWIAN has sued the Council of the University of Zambia demanding that it confers her with a Masters of Business Administration in Management Strategy.
Ms Susan Tissah Mkangama wants the Lusaka High Court to order the Council of the University to, in the alternative, refund her tuition fees with interest at a rate to be determined by the court.
Ms Mkangama wants the court to order that she be paid damages for loss of use of funds.
She also wants damages for loss, inconvenience, damages for mental anguish, legal costs and any other relief that the court may deem fit.
She has stated in a statement of claim that she was a Malawian with interest to study or major in a Master of Business Administration with the University of Zambia.
She submitted that about October 2019 she duly tendered an application to the defendant university for the purpose of being enrolled under the 100 percent online MBA in entrepreneurship programme the university was offering .
Ms Mkangama stated that by an email from the university‘s administration department dated October 22, 2019, she was advised that she would need an application fee, scanned copies of academic documents, O Level records or equivalent for International students and a scanned copy of her National Identification Card (NRC) and passport for her application to be processed.
Ms Mkangama stated that from the foregoing, she has suffered loss and damage.
