DASO exposes maladministration of NMMU student funds
2 September 2014
Today DASO presidential candidate, Hlomela Bucwa, and I revealed the maladministration of the NMMU SRC budget.
Under the leadership of the SASCO led SRC there has been gross maladministration and wasteful expenditure going on behind the scenes. This is unacceptable and must be addressed as a matter of urgency.
It is common cause that the Department of Student Governance and Development exercises oversight on the budget of the SRC. However the effectiveness of this oversight function is brought into question for two reasons.
The first being that, it is evident from the financial records of the SRC that the SRC Officer employed for this function by the Department has on numerous occasions approved expenses that are against the resolution of the Management Committee regarding SRC expenditure.
