The University of South Africa (Unisa) would like to extend its sincerest apologies to the graduates and guests who were inconvenienced by the disruption of the graduation ceremony by protesting members of NEHAWU scheduled for this morning (Tuesday, 15 March 2022).
University Management is currently in conversation with NEHAWU about the issues in dispute that led to the disruption, as well as the rules of engagement when employees exercise their right to protest.
The university will endeavour to make alternative arrangements for the graduates who have been inconvenienced by the disruption and will, in due course, communicate the details of such arrangements directly to the affected graduates.
In the meantime, the graduation ceremonies scheduled for this afternoon at 18:00 as well as tomorrow at 10:00 and 18:00 respectively have been postponed until further notice. The university will also communicate more information about the outstanding graduation ceremonies in due course.
/Ends.
