A section of opposition lawmakers want the new university funding model halted, arguing that it is unsustainable as it disenfranchises students from poor backgrounds.

Addressing a press briefing at Parliament's media centre, the legislators said that there is already a crisis resulting from the model, through which students are awarded scholarships depending on need.
