The National Union of Ghana Students’ a mother union of all universities, professional and private schools, Senior High schools, Junior High and primary schools was swept on its feet with the revelation that one of its executive officers had collected over GH¢5000 meant for the union from a sponsor.
Miss Ivy Desouzy the International Relation Secretary was accused of collecting the Unions sponsorship money and failed to show up ever since for National Executive Committee (NEC) meetings, says Mr. Bonaventure the Treasurer of the union.
This was during a Central Committee (CC) meeting held on the 30 May, 2010 at the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) as a last but one CC meetings to the National congress in August.
Wonder Madilo the Unions President interjected Mr. Bonaventure’s revelation “preventing him from telling his story” till CC members protested against his act.
A Central Committee meeting which drew delegates from almost all member institutions inter alia University of Ghana (UG), Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), University of Cape Coast (UCC), University College of Management Studies (UCOMS), Institute of Professional Studies (IPS), African University College of Communication (AUCC), Jayee University College, Christian Service University College (CSUC) and Garden City University College ended in furor especially with delegates disgusted at the presence of security personnel’s in their midst.
Ivy on her part denied knowledge of such an act and called for a “total auditing and investigation and subsequent arrest” if she was found culpable.
A delegate from the University of Ghana, Legon Mr. Jacob Shamatey (a student leader) expressed his disappointment at the “immaturity exhibited by the Treasurer and President” and called for “a clear vigilant eye from all member institutions to be focused on the union”.
The issue has since been forwarded to the NEC members to conduct thorough probe and present its report at the next CC meeting to be communicated later.
