Hot Audio: Interdicted UEW Vice-Chancellor, five others must be imprisoned – Ken

Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, says the interdiction of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Education Winneba (UEW), Prof. Mawutor Avoke and five other top officials is not enough punishment.
He said they should be imprisoned to serve as deterrent to other officials involved in corrupt practices.
“These criminals after embezzling money have the right to go to court and get hearing. They should just wait for what I’m preparing for them. In fact, these 6 people should be imprisoned forever” he said on Net Two’s morning show “Ghana Today” Wednesday.
Kennedy Agyapong’s comments comes after the Vice-Chancellor Prof. Mawutor Avoke and five other top officials have been asked to step aside as investigations into alleged malfeasance continue.
A statement signed by the Chairman of the university’s governing council Prof. Emmanuel Abakah said the interdictions are necessary to avoid the tampering of evidence.
The statement claimed vital documents have vanished “at the dead of the night” and that there is a “strong signal”, a “high tendency” that this could compromise the integrity of investigations.
The Vice-Chancellor and the Finance Officer are a subject of three investigations – Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) and the university’s fact-finding committee.
They have been accused of “malfeasance in the various procurement and contract awards”.
The Vice-Chancellor and Finance Officer had already been ordered by the Winneba High Court last July to hand over to the Pro-Vice-Chancellor until a case brought before it is determined.
But the outspoken MP who claims to have vital evidence to prove that indeed the Vice-Chancellor and his cohorts are corrupt indicated that he is heading to EOCO to present the documents to them.
“I have credible documents, I will make sure I take it to EOCO to investigate the matter which I know will land them in jail” he said.
Mr Kennedy Agyapong however called on all students of the university to rise up and demonstrate against UTAG who he claims are being used by the Vice Chancellor.
According to him, refusal of the students to protest the matter will force him to incite them against the officials of the university.
“These interdicted criminals are using the NDC lecturers in UTAG to intimidate the students and so I call on all the students to demonstrate against them so we get the justice we want. They need to pay back the money they have stolen from the students.
