Makerere University appointments board is discussing the possible return of Dr Stella Nyanzi who was suspended from Makerere University Institute of Social Research (MISR) last year.
Nyanzi was suspended after she ‘nudely’ protested the closure of her office by the institute’s director Prof. Mahmood Mamdani after she had refused to teach PhD students and participating in research programs.
According to one of the members on the appointments committee,that they will meet again next week to set terms and conditions for Dr. Nyanzi’s return.
The embattled researcher was suspended from Uganda’s oldest University after being found guilty of gross misconduct by a probe committee instituted by the university’s appointments board.
After two months in suspension, Nyanzi scooped a research job at a South Africa University known as Stellenbosch Institute of Advanced Studies (STIAS).
