Bogus Emperor Professor Mokgalong’s Crooked Dictatorship Tendencies Found Naked

University of Limpopo vice-chancellor Professor Mahlo Mokgalong tendencies of being a self-imposed emperor who is abusing his position by using EFF Student Command and his allies to accelerate his crooked agenda has been met with rejection.


Mokgalong’s dirty laundry of subjecting the university into a malfunctioning castle has been recently exposed after postponing the exams because of water shortages without engaging with Polokwane Mayor John Mpe and other relevant structures.


To add salt to the injury, Mokgalong has been accused of using SRC led by EFF Student Command to embark on illegal EFF picket at Thami Square which was dismissed by Progressive Youth Alliance (PYA)–ANC Youth League, the South African Students Congress (SASCO) and the Youth Communist League of South Africa (YCLSA).

“The PYA is extremely disappointed with the SRC decision to reschedule the exam dates. We urge the university to initiate a future emergency or backup plan for the water crisis. The SRC must provide food parcels to students for extended exam dates with immediate effect,” PYA said in a statement.

The youth alliance said they are left with no choice but to report Mokgalong to the Department of Higher Learning because they are gat-vol with his emperor dictatorship conduct.


SASCO provincial convenor Prince Phiri said Mokgalong trends of using EFF Student Command to push his egomaniac agenda through sponsored politically motivated pickets must cease to exist.


Speaking on behalf of the PYA, Phiri said: “We are of the view that this is extremely out of order. We are aware that Mokgalong is an autocratic leader, and he is using EFF SC to push his crooked political agenda. He postponed the exams without engaging Polokwane Mayor Mpe and the relevant structures. Mokgalong is an enemy to progressiveness and a serious counterrevolutionary. He is the enemy to our student progressive forces. He must refrain from politicking and concentrate on his mandate as an academic.”  


Mokgalong has also been reproached for rigging the SRC votes to favour the EFF Student Command with his online voting system that is corrupted which doesn’t give birth to transparency.


Phiri said Mokgalong has refused to use IEC for SRC elections for years because he is using his allies to do his murky work, controlling and milking the university’s purse. “We demand serious transparency about everything. We want IEC to be responsible for SRC votes. We demand to know which companies are given tenders within the institution. We suspect that tenders are given to Mokgalong’s cronies who are milking the university’s purse,” added Phiri.


Polokwane Mayor Mpe has condemned Mokgalong’s conduct of not engaging with him in order to remedy the water shortage in the campus before postponing the exams. He also said Mokgalong must desist from engaging in politics, leave politics to politicians and focus on his academic profession.

Prof Mokgalong didn’t respond to The Azanian’s questions at the time of going to publish.
