Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Angered by management\u2019s decision to serve them Nsima instead of rice, students at Chilumba Secondary School in Karonga last night damaged school property.<\/p>\n

The school\u2019s Headteacher Reuben Singogo said the irate students set ablaze the school but the fire was immediately put off by some students who were against the protests.<\/p>\n

The students then damaged window panes for the Headmasters office, Classrooms and Computer Science laboratory, among others.<\/p>\n

The fracas lasted for about three hours and ended following the intervention of Malawi Police.<\/p>\n

Students involved in the violence act are reportedly on the run.<\/p>\n

The school has Form Three and Form One students as other classes have already written exams administered by Malawi National Examinations Board.<\/p>\n

Schools across Malawi are expected to close this week.<\/p>\n
