High Court orders removal of VC, Registrar of C.K. Tedam University.

The Bolgatanga High Court has ordered the removal of two principal officers of the C.K. Tedam University of Technology and Applied Sciences in Navrongo for being in office despite reaching the compulsory retirement age of 60._ They are the Vice-Chancellor (VC), Professor Eric Magnus Wilmot, and the Registrar of the university, Dr Vincent A. Ankamah Lomotey. On March 20, this year, the plaintiff, Joseph Pwoawuvi Weguri, filed a joint case against the university, the Attorney-General, Prof. Wilmot and Dr Lomotey as first, second, third and fourth defendants. He wanted a declaration that the purported appointment of the third and fourth defendants as VC and Registrar by the first defendant was null and void. It also sought an order compelling the two officers to refund all sums of money, including salaries and allowances they received during the period of nullity.
