“The event today is the first of its kind at our campus. It was a very important event as students had to interact and socialize. In fact, refreshing is one of the important aspects for them to excel in their academic journey,” said Nyirongo.

He said apart from reading books, the students need to develop socially and network with others to share experiences.  

President for SOUMA, Mzuzu Campus Students, and Demeria Chalowelera said the social weekend was organized inorder to accord the students a chance to relax.

“As we are going towards exams, we want to prepare for them with a relaxed mind so that we can do well,” said Chalowelera.
