University top brass could land in hot water over failure to reinstate doctoral student

THE University of Limpopo and two of its senior officials were held in contempt of court for not admitting a student doing his doctorate and ignoring a court order issued more than a year ago in this regard. FILE

The Polokwane High Court voiced its dissatisfaction that a June 2024 order was simply ignored, leaving doctoral student Dickiel Kusainda out in the cold.

Acting Judge S du Plessis awarded a punitive costs order against the university and ordered that it had to immediately re-enrol Kusainda so that he could complete his doctorate.
