University denies teaching witchcraft

KAARO KARUNGI | NEWS –  Machakos University has denied reports circulating on social media posts claiming the institution of higher learning had launched a Bachelor’s Degree in Witchcraft.

The post quotes the vice-chancellor of the university — who is not named — as having said the four-year course had already attracted tens of applicants ahead of its rollout this year.

Adam Shisia, the director of corporate affairs in a statement on Wednesday, rubbished the reports terming them fake and urged members of the public to ignore them.
