Wits says despite being given ample opportunity to make representations at the hearing Mnyamana failed to make representations."The allegations against him are of a serious nature and relate to conduct that infringed on the rights of others, resulted in damage to property, and the intimidation of members of the University community, amongst other things", says Wits spokesperson Shirona Patel.
Meanwhile, in a statement the SRC state that the President was not given ample time for the hearing as he had received the letter at midday. "The university noted his response on/or about 2:10pm of the 06th of March, 2023 and further postponed the meeting for 5:00pm online. The President responded on/or about 3:50pm of the same day, explaining his unavailability due to circumstances beyond his control, and further requested to meet on the following day; the 07th of March, 2023 when he is back and around Braamfontein and campus.
