The University administration is facing hard times since the decision to assume the powers of the guild was taken. The embattled guild government presided by the prime minister Anita Muhairwe has decided to call an immediate General Assembly to contest what they called a hijack of students ‘powers.
The meeting that was attended by majority of parliamentarians, both past ,present and aspiring leaders in the guild information centre resolved to stop talking and do some thing that will show their dissatisfactions against the University administration in assuming full powers of amending the guild constitution.
Following the suspension of Lufunya and his entire guild activities, the university decided to amend the guild governing document, some thing that abrogates article one of the same constitution that stipulates that the students shall make their own laws.
Other issues raised in the meeting to guarantee the immediate calling of the General Meeting were the uncertainties of the cultural gala and the next guild elections. “Do not think of even campaigning before this sensitive issue is sorted out”, one outgoing guild leader advised interested members in the next guild government adding that rumour has it that elections of the next government has been shifted from 2nd to 17 next month without proper explanation from the university.
They intend to later move on to various offices carrying placards in what they said will be a peaceful demonstration.
