Medical students at Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University in Garankuwa say poor hygiene conditions in student residences are disrupting their studies and daily lives. They report unsanitary living conditions, including a lack of cleaning staff and no running water at the 4B female residence for about two weeks.
Students say the situation is especially concerning given the university’s role as a leading health sciences institution in South Africa. They argue that the poor conditions do not match the nearly R50,000 annual accommodation fees and believe the institution should set a strong example for hygiene and healthcare standards.
