President Of Social Science Faculty In UNIZIK Suspended 

On the 27th of July, the President of the Faculty Of Social Science Students (FOSSSA), Eke Angel, was suspended by the faculty’s Senate, over non-compliance with constitutional rules.

According to the press release, it was stated that the 8th legislative council of the faculty suspended Eke Angel for ignoring an invitation asking her to appear before the honourable house, without any excuse.

Angel Eke’s refusal to comply with the directives of the FOSSSA Senate was considered “intentional and intended to undermine not only the affairs and directives of the FOSSSA senate but also that of the faculty at large.”

The release further stated that: “The Executive President commenced sales of forms without the permission of the Senate house which is unconstitutional,”

“The Executive President gave her appointees the go-ahead to assume office without being properly and totally screened by the Senate house,”

“The Executive President modus operandi is unconstitutional, violating the constitution of the faculty and going against the oath of the office which she swore during her inauguration.”

Further accusations against the President include negligence of some executive members who are the major signatories to the FOSSSA account, who by right, are meant to be.

Also, withdrawal from the FOSSSA account without following due processes, charged with the fault of financial management.

In conclusion, Angel Eke was directed to hand over all property belonging to the faculty in her possession to other members of the executive with immediate effect as she ceases to be the FOSSSA president pending the duration of the suspension, failure of which will attract serious disciplinary actions against her.

The release was signed by the Chief Clerk, Uzoka Promise, and the Senate President, Hon. Grant Ebubechi Ujam.
