The embattled former chairperson of Makerere University Business School -MUBS Council Prof. Venansius Baryamureeba wants government to conduct an independent audit into the governance and management of the institution.
Baryamureeba told journalists at a press briefing this morning that he is willing to provide evidence relating to the gross mismanagement of MUBS perpetrated by the incumbent Principal, Prof. Waswa Balunywa.
This comes a few days after the MUBS Council members voted out Prof Baryamureeba as chairperson of the council.
In a heavily-worded-three-page statement, Prof. Baryamureeba highlighted eleven areas that he wants investigated by an independent audit.
They include among others the alleged systematic and institutionalized corruption at MUBS, gross mismanagement and abuse of office, the capture the MUBS council by management, blatant contravention of Laws and council decisions by management, illegal recruitments, appointments and dismissals of staff and mismanagement leading to financial loss to the institution annually.
Prof. Baryamureeba also challenges the logic behind appointing Members of Parliament on the council of a public institution. He argues that the presence of State Minsiters Evelyn Anite, Bright Rwamirama and Beatrice Atim Anywar on the council poses governance challenges to the institution since they belong to an institution that is mandated to provide oversight to public institutions.
