BIUST on a spending spree

Sekolo se a tura bagaetsho! BIUST is giving out much-needed money for free - gratis. Ba tsaya kae madi a a kalo? This in the face of world recession, introduction of fees in schools as cost recovery measures, and the frantic effort to recover more than P11 billion in outstanding scholarship bills from our young graduates?Please also note that the scholarships are a sheer windfall for the applicants as BIUST does not promise to employ these doctoral candidates, but merely educate them for the world. Again, where does BIUST get that money when they are a university that is yet to find its feet and are operating on borrowed time and space?
