Makerere university deputy registrar, Margaret Etuusa has been suspended by the University’s management for allegedly collected money from parents and students during the recent graduation ceremony without the knowledge of the university.
According to management, her suspension is meant to give space for the investigations to kick off since it had caused a public outcry over the act which was uncalled for.
The deputy Vice chancellor Finance and administration Prof Barnabus Nawangwe confirmed that Etuusa was suspended after reports were released pinning her for clearing the company that collected money from parents without the university’s knowledge.
He explains that she went against the regulations and laws governing the contract department at the university and authorized the company that distorted money from parents and students during the 67th graduation ceremony.
Parents and students who had carried phones were required to pay between Shs3000 and shs5000 for each phone to be kept by the company that was assigned since such gadgets were not allowed at the graduation venue.
