The incident has sparked outrage, with educational activist Hendrick Makaneta expressing deep sorrow over the loss of life. He emphasized the need for universities to remain safe spaces for learning and condemned the use of firearms on campus.

 

Makaneta criticized the government’s failure to provide a secure environment for students and urged law enforcement to act swiftly in bringing the perpetrator to justice. He also called on the university to review and strengthen its security measures to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

 

“We stand in solidarity with those affected and will continue to advocate for safety on campuses,” Makaneta stated, urging that urgent action be taken to protect students and restore trust in the university environment.
