    Sustainable student leadership in Africa today
    Muhia, James; Gitau, Maureen
    African Universities are facing a crisis that revolves around student governance. In the recent past, there have been reported student unrests in many universities in Africa and closer home, Kenya. The core of the matter is the issue of student leadership which has been highly politicized and lacks credibility. The solution however lies in implementation of leadership structures that are sustainable and unique to the needs of the university in question. The concepts of sustainable leadership remain complex and confusing for many to grasp. It is a challenge for today's institutions of higher learning to define these concepts and to be able to measure them. This research paper seeks to highlight the concepts and principles of sustainable student leadership in African universities in the 21st Century.
