The SRC president of the University of Professional Studies, Accra has been suspended over some questionable transactions, UPSANEWSROOM.com has reported.
Peter MwinZumah was suspended by the SRC General Assembly on Monday after he failed to show up at a meeting to respond to some questions about the alleged misuse of student funds.
The suspended SRC president was cited alongside some other officers of the student council for various financial infractions in an audit report released early this February 2020.
In the said Independent Audit Report, Mr MwinZumah was said to have spent a whopping GH¢25,000 on project work training seminar for final year students in the first semester of the 2019/2020 academic year.
He is also on record to have spent over GH¢28,677 on the purchase of stationery materials and office equipment last year.
The General Assembly has made several attempts in the past to summon the suspended SRC president to react to the content of the report but it has not been successful.
He was summoned to appear before the General Assembly at an emergency meeting held on February 24, 2020, but he absented himself.
Following a motion moved to suspend Mr MwinZumah over his evasive attitude and ably seconded by Nathaniel Addo Jill Junior, the SRC Vice-president, the SRC president was suspended.
The decision to suspend Mr MwinZumah was taken in his absence, UPSANEWSROOM.com’s Venessa Oduma Boamah has reported
Hello fellow professional student’s,if the president has been suspended over some questionable transactions…then the vice should be also suspended….because the president can’t do anything without the vice knowing it . Thank you
I second u …
If the vice knew about it he wouldn’t have also be present on that day so you can’t just say he should also be suspended if there is no prove of him part taken in it
