The Southern African Students and Youth Development Association (SASYDA) has hailed the Copperbelt University (CBU) administration for reinstating 32 students from the Banking and Finance programme who were previously expelled.

In a statement signed by its President, Ibrahim Kabwe Mwamba, the association described the decision as a demonstration of the university’s commitment to the welfare and education of its students.

“I am delighted to welcome the news from the Copperbelt University administration regarding the reinstatement of 32 expelled students from the Banking and Finance program,” Mwamba said. “As the President of SASYDA, I commend the university administration for giving these students a second chance. This decision demonstrates the administration’s commitment to the welfare and education of its students.”

He also expressed deep appreciation for the role played by the Copperbelt University Students Union (COBUSU), particularly its President, whose “tireless efforts in advocating for the reinstatement of these students” were described as commendable.

“To the students who were expelled, I urge you to use this second chance wisely and to uphold the values of academic integrity,” Mwamba added. “Let us work together to promote a culture of honesty and hard work within our academic institutions.”

The reinstatement marks the end of a tense period for the affected students and their families, who had faced uncertainty over their academic futures. Mwamba concluded by reaffirming SASYDA’s support for student welfare and urging continued collaboration between student unions and university administrations across the region to safeguard educational opportunities.
