The University of South Africa’s Durban campus was stormed by angry students on Wednesday January 17 2018 after registration processes were delayed by striking staff.

Prospective Unisa students stormed the Durban campus on Wednesday morning.

A group of about 100 students forced down a section of palisade fencing‚ and threw stones and bottles at security guards.

They had earlier gone toe to toe with Ethekwini Metro Police officers after they blocked roads outside the campus and stoned passing cars.

It is understood that the protest stems from delays in registration‚ caused by an internal university strike.
