A WORD FROM ATU CHIDERA (ABSU SUG DOS)

Am not ignorant about the news on the social Media concerning my suspension and relieve of duties by theSRC on the basis of "GROSS MISCONDUCT " so I had to write this to strengthen issues because of my already damaged reputation and love I get from those who believe in me which may gradually fade away because of the bad name tag placed on my personality and office.

The SRC has the power to checkmate the activities of the Executives and have the right to suspend any official on account of misconduct.

Below are the grounds for my suspension:

A) Refusal to honour the

invitations of the house for a meeting (24/JUNE 2016).

B) Making derogatory statements to the house and Negligence of the DOS to carry the SRC along in discharge of his constitutional duties .

               THE TRUTH.
A) I missed the meeting because of an SUG event on 24/6/2016 (the skill acquisition program) which is a social event in collaboration with welfare director and organised by the vice president, and the fact that the notice for meeting came less than 24hrs to the time of the meeting so it was indeed difficult to get my committee members for ratification since we all have varying schedules.

B) On 11/6/2016, I honoured the invitation the house to come with my social committee members for ratification by 12pm prompt, I was walked out by the SRC on account of not dressing cooperate and was not allowed to say a word. By 5:30pm.

Below is the text msg I sent to the SP,DSP &Clerk by 4:11pm due to delay in the time earlier given(12pm promt) which was tagged derogatory on which I must be suspended:

Hlo sir. I came to RC from a group rehearsal for ABSU dance battle organised by me,av lost the whole day cus of the ratification, pls ild like to be excused to shower eat bla bla bla but my committee nominees are present for ratification thanks.

I never insulted any one,I never embezzled funds I committed no crime.

This is my first time as an SUG executive, the Honourable house should have called me to order if found wanting  not going on the social media to dent my reputation.

Thanks for believing in me,thanks for voting me,I promise to continue protecting the interest of students socially .
