UEW lecturer dares government

File Photo File Photo

A lecturer of the University of Education Winneba has threatened that the country will not know peace if government makes an attempt to remove Professor Anthony Afful Broni from office as Vice Chancellor.

His threats come on the heels of recent calls made by former President Jerry John Rawlings to the Minister of National Security, Mr. Albert Kan-Dapaah to give the former Vice-Chancellor of the University of Education, Winneba, Prof Mawutor Avoke, justice as far as his ousting from office is concerned following his exoneration by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) of alleged procurement and management breaches.

Obviously exasperated by these calls, Alhassan Bawa questioned: “ which laws clothes a former President with power to determine who should be vice chancellor of a public university”.

He said “It is submitted without any iota of doubt that Rev. Fr. Prof. Afful-Broni, the current Vice-Chancellor of the University of Education, Winneba, is NEITHER resigning from his position, nor would he be relieved of his position. He is serving out his full term, Insha Allah! If anyone has a problem with this, they only have themselves to blame, and NO one else!”

Read below Alhassan Bawa’s statement unedited

A former British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, once described the Ugandan Railways, as the ‘Lunatic Railways’.

Therefore, in line with Churchill’s methodology, nothing stops reasonable members of society from describing the recent press statement of the dismissed and disgraced Vice-Chancellor (VC) of the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), Prof. Mawutor Avoke, as a ‘Lunatic’ Press Statement.

There is a certain crook parading as a lawyer in this country, who erroneously hold the view that he can manipulate everyone in the pursuit of his warped, parochial and paranoid agenda. This individual, with an insatiable appetite for money, and whose mental state appears questionable, myopically believe that all humanity must succumb to his Lunatic ways.

It is not surprising that the incompetent and corrupt minded Prof. Avoke, fell for the lunacy of this sorrowful and pathetic figure, clothed in suits and other paraphernalia (a Lunatic in suit).

This Lunatic drafted Prof. Avoke Press Statement, released on 16th April, 2019. Very soon, the lunacy of this conman would be made apparent for the whole world to witness.

If not lunacy, how can Prof. Avoke, state without shame in public that a bogus Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) Report formed the basis of his dismissal?

Reasonable people are aware of the fact that Prof. Avoke and his accomplices in public funds looting, were given the marching off orders from UEW based on a Governing Council Fact-Finding Committee Report, and NOTHING ELSE! The said dismissals were neither based on a corruption-tainted EOCO Report, nor a High Court decision. It is only an association of Lunatics, who will foolishly and stupidly swallow such garbage, hook, line and sinker.

It has also come to light that this Lunatic in suit, after allegedly extorting money from some unemployed layabouts, thus a former VC, Finance Officer, Deputy Finance Officer, etc., to settle a debt incurred in organizing unpatriotic demonstrations, has now baselessly resolved to dig madly into the educational qualifications of the son of the upright peasant farmer.

I do hereby sanely refer the insane Lawyer, to read my article titled: “Professors Akwasi Asabere-Ameyaw & Mawutor Avoke, To Face ‘Prosecution’ For Recruiting A Truck Driver As A Lecturer”. In this write-up, I stated inter alia that I never had any formal education, and yet was recruited by Prof. Asabere-Ameyaw as a Lecturer, and confirmed by the inept and incompetent Prof. Avoke.

With the above incontrovertible evidence, why is this Lunatic, who claim to be a Lawyer, fail to head to court to get me sacked from UEW, and possibly face prosecution together with Professors Asabere-Ameyaw and Avoke? Anyone, insanely attempting to dig into my educational qualifications, can at best be described as a coward, very stupid and foolish. He who alleges, MUST prove, so go to court and get me sacked and stop preying on the intelligence of some unemployed hands, which only amount to a face saving device.

Furthermore, intelligence indicates that this Lunatic intends to submit fake documents to the procurement office of UEW, win contracts, and turn around and accuse UEW of awarding contracts to non-existent companies.

No problem, the current management of UEW is patiently waiting to award contracts to these fictitious companies in gross disregard of the Public Procurement Act 2003 (Act 663) as amended, just like what the ‘saint’ Avoke and Ackorlie did. Bring it on!!

The troika of deceit, thus a baby with very sharp teeth clothed with greed, stupidity and ignorance, Avoke and Ackorlie, must know that misinforming the public has only one effect, and that is, appearing as buffoons in the eyes of a majority of Ghanaians.

I have got infinite ‘gears’, and all along, the position of my gear stick, has been neutral. Am now contemplating engaging first gear, so the ‘show’ is yet to start. This small chap with very sharp teeth and his financiers, haven’t seen anything yet.

Anyone who has a problem with my utterances or publications, should blame Article 21(1)(a) of the 1992 Constitution. I derive the freedom to express my opinion on matters from this provision. Therefore, any maniac, running around with mental health problems, clothed in suits, and who insanely believe that he must control everyone and everything, should abrogate the 1992 Constitution and showcase their dictatorial features, openly thereafter.

I respect the traditional rulers and other notable individuals who have appealed to me to stay off the media at the instance of this little lad, through third parties. Unfortunately, apart from Allah, nothing can stop me from articulating my views. Even a return of this country to a military style dictatorship CANNOT stop me!

Fortunately, am not rich, but contended with what Allah has blessed me with. As a result, am not like some union leaders to be bribed with stolen public funds through Lunatics in suits in the region of GHS 60,000 to issue unconstitutional and disgraceful press statements. No amount of money can buy my conscience!

It is crass stupidity, coupled with ignorance of the highest order and soaked with mental illness, for anyone to harbour the minutest of hope that attacks on me, be they spiritual, physical or made up stories and circulated by cowards under pseudo names, would put me under any compulsion to change course. Am too good for that!! My skin is not only thick, but concretized and reinforced!! Even an atomic bomb, would be of no effect, Insha Allah!!!

It is submitted without any iota of doubt that Rev. Fr. Prof. Afful-Broni, the current Vice-Chancellor of the University of Education, Winneba, is NEITHER resigning from his position, nor would he be relieved of his position.

He is serving out his full term, Insha Allah! If anyone has a problem with this, they ONLY have themself to blame, and NO one else! Alhassan Salifu Bawah
