        @BBCAfrica I think #StellaNyanzi's naked protest was irrational, unprofessional and uncalled for. She embarrassed herself in public.

        @josephajabo Funny how you totally miss the reason why she did what she did. Typical pedestrian thinking. Educate yourself about symbolism.

        @LincolnSayuni thank you. People like @van_bellingen who insult others on Twitter only do so because they do not know how to articulate.

        @BBCAfrica l envy her for having the guts to put action to her words. The point is not the stripping itself but to be heard#StellaNyanzi

        @BBCAfrica I was research fellow @MISR 2012-2014. Stella's refusal to teach is wrong. Prof Mamdani is right. Her protest was misplaced.

        @BBCAfrica we should redirect our focus to the structures that pushed to that point

        @BBCAfrica the situation didn't deserve stripping off clothes....she needs an anger management treatment.
