THE TRUTH MUST BE
TOLD! THERE IS NO MISSING N6.2M FROM SUG ACCOUNT
- SUG SECRETARY
GENERAL, COMR. KELVIN ONYEBUCHI
I
have two questions. One to the SRC and one to NAU Times. Please, Mr. Speaker
and SRC, where and how was the missing N6.2m generated and in which bank
account? As we know the school have not released funds for the union and the
only source of fund for the union is coming from the TTF, now did the TTF
generate N6.2m in how many months? I want to state emphatically clear that no
money is missing, not even a kobo. If as alleged the Mr. President took a kobo
from the SUG purse, then there was no possible way he could do that without my
knowledge and that of the whole executive council.
As
the secretary general of SUG, I stand to counter the SRC making them understand
that if SUG had such money at her disposal, then believe me, UNIZIK BRAIN
FACIO, the students’ symposium that awarded laptop, refrigerator and generator
to the students could have awarded cars. I would have personally assured this.
The same president SRC is suspending is the same person that called the first
ever SUG, SRC and SJC joint congress where we discussed the way forward for our
students and our great institution. SRC, my question is this: why do you want
to hamper the success of this administration with your politics? Although you
people have the right to suspend whosoever you so wishes, also know that the
union executives pledges their loyalty only to the students of Unizik and not
to the house (SRC).
This
suspension saga only reminds me of the letter of summon by the SRC to the
President which the president did not answer. The reason is this, before the
SRC summoned the President, Mr. President had already fixed an appointment with
AIRTEL, fighting for the success of the SUG week which is for the benefit of
the whole genius zikites. This was explained to the house after they threatened
to suspend the President, and yet they went ahead with their suspension. Now,
I’m asking, who comes first, the entire students of Unizik or some students of
Unizik in the SRC? Even as this suspension still comes, why is it accompanied
with a false rumour of mismanagement of funds to the extent of N6.2m by the
President?
Therefore,
I appeal that the SRC revoke their unjustifiable suspension and every
slanderous and libelous statements and actions because there was no N6.2m not
to talk of being missing.
My
number two question is to NAU Times. But before I continue, I must appreciate
your efforts in keeping our student’s informed. Now, why would a web blog which
is still growing in the journalism world lack objectiveness which is a core
pillar to the principles of journalism? Why would you make a political
statement appear to be true even when we know the truth? Don’t you know that
there is a difference between ‘someone stole’ and ‘someone was alleged to
steal’? Please, it is about time we acted FOR THE LOVE OF UNIZIK and not to
kill achievement.
COMR.
