Makerere University Vice Chancellor Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe is away for one-week, following a suspension he meted against the Makerere University Staff Association (Muasa) leader Dr. Deus Kamunyu Muhwezi last week.
However, sources told The second Opinion that Prof. Nawangwe had taken ‘leave’ to allow ‘the storm calm’, and that while he is away, Dr. Eria Hisali will be in charge, a development confirmed by Rita Namisango, the University Senior Public Relations Officer.
According to Namisango, Prof. Nawangwe will return to office next Monday. “What I know is that he is away on official duty. He will be in office next Monday,” she said.
Dr. Kamunyu’s suspension was contained in a letter dated January 17, 2019, and he is accused of inciting staff and indiscipline.
However, speaking earlier to this reporter, Dr. Kamunyu was reluctant to discuss the on-goings but said he is not bothered and is hopeful that the decision to suspend him will be rescinded.
