Evelyn Hone College students will pay Five Hundred Kwacha each for the damaged property during recent riots at the institution. The students are required to pay the fee as soon as they open school on July 29th 2013.
Some students who sought anonymity say the penalty fee is too much.
Recently 70students at the institution were picked up by police following demonstrations against government’s failure to place them on bursary and improve sanitation standards.

i agree with you but,it is us the parents or guadians again, who are going to pay the anounced penalties and not the culprites (students).
Therefore, students must also go and clean all dirty areas in the city for a period of 1 week under millitary guard as a way of panishing them.

If anything that amount is littel these student should be taught a leson and we are seeing these kind of behaviour because the people passed with likages a serious student would not do such a silly thing .You see because education has been lose student they pass with likages thats why we are seing these kind of the behaviour ati future leaders useless students.

Breaking school property is not a solution. Students should realize that they found those schools and will leave them for other future generations. They should pay for that riotous behavior and the damage caused..

This amount is toooo small indeed! They must be made to pay more for the damage they caused. I know unprincipled people like ka Hyena Hyena (HH) WILL QUICKLY PAY FOR HIS GIRLFRIEND WHO IS AT EVELYN HONE! Has this young lady already graduated?
I hear she was a ‘some of us’ at the College. HH used to often come incognito to come and visit her. He would take her to expensive Hotels in South Africa and also in Zambia. He used to lie that the student was his niece!

Violence is not a solution to concerns rather dialogue is the best answer. If youths cannot learn this in school, let them learn in a harder way. Five hundred Kwacha is not enough let them pay One Thousand Kwacha for them to learn a lesson. Let the management reconsider this. A heavy penalty should also be scrapped on Serenje Technical Secondary School and Ibolelo in Serenje for maliciously damaging school property and stealing. If these pupils and students are left unchecked, I wonder what type of leadership they will offer through violence.

Ba mambala ba pa Hone, you should have been made to pay more than K500. After all you were saying that the burning of lecture rooms would ensure new ones can be built. Can you build new lecture rooms from k500? Probably, K2000 would have been a good amount.

Emmanuel, uwenda na ngoshe nokumubeya eumubeya!
Even day scholars had information that there colleagues will riot at 03:00 AM but they didn’t inform police so that they could have protected the property from extensive damage by the boarding students.
You will all just pay so that it hurts and next time day scholar students hear the boarders fermenting nonsense riotous behaviour they will be the first to let your next door neighbours (ZP HQ) aware.
Nowadays, students are too relaxed with their studies.

I thot evn one of u guys wud b realistic enough to think of the reasons y these students rioted, they formally appealed to the govnmnt for quiet some tym to no avail!
What the governmnt shud then is to comment on the students’ cries then be displined! U r busy supportng the trash move when the money drained from these poor students will jst b used for other by-election!

We need to build new schools especially in places where there are no schools,ages after independence.People in such places have been denied their right to education as citizens of this country.So is it fair that govt should start renovating schools where the damage has been caused by irresponsible students regardless of how genuine their reasons for rioting are. Families do ve challenges too but I have never heard of children damaging properties owned by their families because they are aggrieved!so why is this happening in schools? Its a lesson to all students those involved and those who could not report to the relevant offices before the damage took place.

of course they have to be punished but its not them to pay its their parents,so other means of punishment would be better than the one you prefer of increasing the penalty fee because that will not even affect them.
