The Copperbelt University (CBU) has been closed indefinitely with immediate effect.
This follows the disruption of academic activities at the institution after lecturers downed tools and vowed not to resume work until the vice chancellor Professor Naison Ngoma and his management team step down.
The students have since been urged to leave campus starting at 13:00 hours.
Education Minister, Dr. Michael Kaingu said this at a news conference in Lusaka, today.
